If there was science and technology in the time of ancestors, what would they do?
KATHMANDU: APRIL. 3 – Dr. Baburam Bhattarai, Chairperson of JSP Nepal’s Federal Council, has questioned the traditional practice. He questioned the government’s and the educated class’s promotion of traditional beliefs.
Dr. Bhattarai, a former Prime Minister, wondered what would have happened if science and technology existed in ancestors’ time.
‘When the train service starts, the train will be covered with garlands! Worship when the new plane arrives! Teaching priest while laying the foundation stone of the building! Cutting black goat when entering PM’s residence! Etc. etc. If our ancestors had the current science and technology, what would they do? Do we have to tie a cat and do shradha? ‘, He said through social media.
रेलसेवा शुरू गर्दा रेल मालाले छोप्ने! नयाॅ प्लेन आउॅदा उसको पूजा गर्ने! भवनको शिलान्यास गर्दा पूरोहितद्वारा पाठ गराउने!प्रमनिवास प्रवेश गर्दा कालो बोका काट्ने!आदि इत्यादि। हाम्रा पूर्खाको पालामा अहिलेको विज्ञान-प्रविधि भएको भए के गर्दा हुन्?हामीले बिरालो बाॅधेर श्राद्ध गर्नैपर्छ?
