माघ शुक्ल द्वादशी
Kumva Sakranti | World Radio Day | Bhisma Dwadashi
The commencement of this spring will add to your happiness. From today, the Sun is entering Aquarius from Capricorn. Welcome to the Kumva Sakranti of this year.
Now, the winds will begin to blow slowly. The grains planted after cutting the paddy in the field are now ripening. In the Terai region, the fields have been flooded with wheat plants. Now, the time shortened by the bitter cold will grow longer, cuckoo's Kuhu Kuhu will fill the warm long days with music.
The main thing is to make the longer and more fun-filled evening time. It's now a fiesta for those who like the evening time.
This month is named Falgun after a star in the solar system named 'Uttarafalguni'. The first day of the month is called Sankranti and the last day is called Masanta.
This special day is celebrated not only in Nepal but also in neighboring countries like India and Bangladesh by welcoming the spring season in the traditional style.
Bangladeshis prepare a variety of traditional desserts and dishes to celebrate 'Pohela Falgun' or 'Basanto Utsav'. In Bengali, Pohela is the first, so it is clear that it is celebrated on the first day of Falgun, i.e. Sakranti.
May this fall be beneficial for all, may it be auspicious. In the many ups and downs of life, the colors of enthusiasm should not be diminished, the colorful dimensions of hope should be added, and the smile should increase the inspiration. Happy Kumva Sakranti
World Radio Day
Members of UNESCO proclaimed world radio day in 2011, and it was adopted by the UN general assembly in 2012 as an international day for Radio, February 13th became the World Radio Day (WRD). This also marks the anniversary of the first radio broadcast in 1946. The theme of the 2022 edition of World Radio Day is thus devoted to "Radio and Trust". UNESCO invites all radio stations worldwide to celebrate the 9th World Radio Day and to share information about their relevant activities.
In a world equipped with smartphones, Smart TVs, Tablets, and PCs people often ask us "Why Radio?"
Well, Radio's strength is educating and informing the maximum numbers of people in their daily lives and an emergency has always been important. Especially in Nepal, Radio has a huge significance in both romance and revolution. Yes, romance and revolution because both these terms depict the power of expression. Radio delivered messages and created awareness in our society, awareness on sanitation, toilet usage, diarrhea, HIV AIDS, Safe sex and have always fostered our equal access to information. Radio has a strong role in institutionalizing Nepali democracy, strengthening people's movement, and truly creating a democratic Nepal. Radio goes wherever modern technology can't, beyond electricity, beyond mobile signal, beyond literacy, beyond screens, and beyond what not? Radio is a social medium, fostering engagement and meaningful participation, in people's own mother tongues.
How did you feel for the first time you heard your name pronounced on the radio? How did it feel to have your letters read over the radio? Ever dedicated a song for someone through radio? Visited a radio station and how it felt to see the face of your favorite radio jockeys? Radio is a wonderful tool, it gave us an experience that is larger than life.
Everyone alive today has listened to the radio at least once and most people listen to the radio every day. The radio is the origin of multiple means of communication today however, the radio itself owes its manifest to the other two inventions "Telephone" and "Telegraph". Primarily started as "Wireless Telegraph" Radio is an electronic appliance that enables us to listen to the sound waves by translating them from frequencies and waves. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves that can transmit music, speech, pictures, and other data invisibly through the air.
Radio is a uniquely personal communication medium that is based on sounds, these sounds invoke the listener's imagination and translate perception into their minds. Are you not tired of shuffling the newsfeed over Facebook? How long can you see and close the YouTube videos and deal with your preoccupied mind? Radio is simple yet inspiring, engaging yet free, and translated a never-tiring zeal to its listeners. The first phrase in Nepali radio was broadcast on the 2nd April of 1951, where the first chief of Radio Nepal Mr. Tarini Koirala declared on the radio that it was a radio of democracy. Broadcasted from the Khumaltar station of 500 watts, Today Nepal has hundreds of Radio stations, FMs, and countless podcasts and online streaming. Maybe I sound old-fashioned but the bold and formal tone in Radio Nepal "Yo Radio Nepal ho, aba sunnuhos …… bata samachar" still revolves around my head and brings back a thick cloud of nostalgias into my mind. Radio is also a thread of memories for people like me.
Hereby, I would not miss this chance to bring a popular youth radio show "Sathi Sanga Manka Kura" where I worked as a program producer for 3 years. I had this opportunity to host over 100 episodes and develop above 243 episodes and segments. I remember those piles of letters sent by our listeners, radio was the medium of friendship and every week over a million Nepali youth listened to their best friends show "Sathi sanga manka kura" in their radios. Radio has had a remarkable impact on my life, initially as an active listener, letter writer, and regular caller, later as a host, scriptwriter, and program concept developer.
Gratitude to people who dedicated their lives to the radio, inventors, and innovators. My sincere wishes for those radio stations which are striding their level best just to sustain, for those radio enthusiasts who selflessly catch microphones and entertains/ educates. There is every reason to support local radio stations' continued existence rather than put them in peril.
Radio stations play a critical role in society and the community by forming critical communication channels that are used to consume information. Communication is essential in our transformation and only through critical thinking, exchange of information have we transformed our society, improved our living standards, and facilitate the next innovation and invention. Let me write in a clear and bold letter that radio is still relevant, every day hundreds of calls are made to radio stations to share ideas and contribute to nationwide discussions. This affordable device brings everyone together, young, old, poor, and rich. Everyone is welcome to share their opinions, and through that create understandings and tolerance among communities and people. If you hold the microphone, keep up the voice and zeal, if you are a listener then do tune into radios. Wishing you a meaningful radio day, Namastey from Nepal.
Bhisma Dwadashi
Let me narrate a short story of Mahabharat to describe this holy day, Bhisma Dwadashi.
Shantanu's wife Ganga gave birth to a son named, Dev- Vrat. Ganga wanted Dev-Vrat to be the successor of Shantanu which Shantanu couldn't agree with. After knowing all these incidents, adult Dev-Vrat swore not to marry his whole life. Shantanu gave him a boon where Dev-Vrat could himself choose his death.
Dev-Vrat later was known as Bhisma Pitamaha. During the battle of Mahabharata, Bhisma was defeated by Arjun and was lying on the bed of arrows penetrating his body. Bhisma choose to die as the Uttarayana commenced. Bhisma Dwadashi is the day when Pandavas offered death rituals to Bhisma. This day greatly acknowledges Bhisma and his contribution. This day is also remembered as an auspicious day to recite VishnuSahastranam, the book which has 100 names of Vishnu and its relevance.
My best wishes on this day.
