Having said that, here is a brief history of how the Nepalese Year or Bikram Era started:
Bikram Samvat or Era (विक्रम सम्वत्) is the calendar established by the first LIchhavi King Vikramaditya marking the sovereign history of Nepal dating back to 2070 years ago from today. The Bikram Samvat or BS calendar is well ahead of the western or Christian calendar by over 56 years. The Bikram Samvat is supposed to commemorate the victory of king Vikramaditya over the Sakas who had invaded Ujjain.
Like the Bikram Sambat Nepal Sambat is another indigenous era established in 936 BS. The Newar community celebrates both Nepal Sambat and Mahapuja together on the same day. The Nepal Sambat on the other hand was established duering the malla period and in use during the reign of Prithvi Narayan Shah and Rana regime. However, there was only 354 days in Nepal Sambat in contrast to 365 days in the Bikram Sambat Calendar. Therefore, Chandra Shamser deiced to use Bikram Sambat as Nepalese official calendar to resolve the issues of changes in tithi (date).
The Nepalese year begins in Baisakh which falls in 14th of April and ends in the twelfth month of Chaitra. Baisakh can be linked to New Year in several parts of India and other countries of Asia. Buddhists celebrate the month of Baisakh as Buddha Purnima in Nepal, Bangladesh and India. Buddha purnima commemorates the birth and passing of Gautam Buddha. The same festival is called Visaka Puja in Thailand, Waisak in Indonesia and Wesak in Sri Lanka. Read more…

के हो ? तिहार पर्व ! Know more about Tihar (Deepawali) and bit of history!
तिहार नेपालीहरुको ज्यादै रमाइलो चाड हो । यो विशेष गरी साँस्कृतिक पर्व हो । पाँच दिन चल्ने यो चाडलाई यमपञ्चक पनि भनिन्छ । पौराणिक कथन अनुसार बहिनी यमुना र दाजु यमराजवीचको कथालाई तिहारले सम्झना गराउँदछ । यो चाडमा काग, कुकुर, गाई आदि पशुपक्षीको पूजाले मानिसको प्रकृतिप्रेम र मानवतालाई झल्काउँछ । यो सांगीतिक पर्व पनि हो । देउसी–भैलोले यसलाई जीवन्त राखेको छ । दिदीबहिनीको हातबाट दाजुभाइले टीका ग्रहण गर्ने तिहार नेपालीहरुको मौलिक पर्व हो । पारिवारिक आत्मीयतालाई जोड्ने यो साँस्कृतिक चाडको अनुपम उदाहरण हो । नेपाललाई चिनाउने नेपाली विशेषतायुक्त चाड तिहार हो । मखमली र सयपत्री फूलको मालाले सुशोभित गराउने चाड पनि हो । बोटबिरुवा र फूलको महिमा हुने पर्व पनि हो । अन्धकारलाई चिर्न दिपावली गरी उज्यालो प्रकाश छर्ने ज्योतिर्मय पर्व पनि हो । त्यसैले तिहारलाई दिपावली पनि भनिन्छ । झिलीमिली बत्तीले मनभित्रको अन्धकारलाई हटाइ सकारात्मक सोँचले अगाडि बढ्न यो पर्वले प्रेरणा जगाउँछ । दाजुभाइ र दिदीबहिनीवीचको पवित्र प्रेमलाई तिहारले अमर बनाएको छ । हिजो, आज र भोली पनि यो पर्वको महत्व थियो, छ र रहनेछ । किनकी मानवियतासँग यस पर्वको घनिष्ठ सम्बन्ध छ ।
खास गरी नेपालको सन्दर्भमा भन्दा नेवार जातिले तिहारलाई नयाँ वर्ष( न्हूँ दँया भिन्तुना )रुपमा मान्दछ । साँस्कृतिक उत्सवको रुपमा लिन्छ । आफूले आफैलाई पूजा ( म्ह पूजा ) गर्ने यो ज्यादै मौलिक चाड हो । मानिसको जीवन र व्यबहारसँग गाँसिएको विधि र विधानलाई प्रतिकात्मकरुपमा प्रस्तुत गराउने चाड पनि हो । सुस्वास्थ र दीर्घायुको शुभकामना आदान–प्रदान गर्ने चाड पनि हो । अर्को शव्दमा भन्दा मानिस, पशुपक्षी र प्रकृतिसँग गाँसिएको कल्याणकारी साँस्कृतिक पर्वको नाम तिहार हो । अन्त्यमा स्वदेश र विदेशमा रहेका सवै नेपालीहरु एवं विश्व समुदायमा शुभदिपावलीको हार्दिक मङ्गलमय शुभकामना ।

Google inside adsense blog last month published the percentage of ads impression metrics for 235 country.These countrys included the island country of Palau – one of the world’s newest sovereign states – and the middle-African nation of Equatorial Guinea, with astounding growth rates of 1106% and 4635% respectively.
United states is still the largest in ads impression of 24.7%, where China and Japan are at 11% and 6% respectively. As you can see on image the Nepal in gray color that means including all the country in gray color share the 12.8% of total ads impression. Which clearly shows that the google adsense ads impression in Nepal as individual is much low in percentage. I reckon country in gray color also represent the degree of development and internet communication. Anyway in coming future hope to see Nepal going up in impression and development. Read more…
