Our Hindu faith guides all our actions from dawn to dusk, from birth till death and from this world into the next. It is in Hinduism that the continuity of our [Nepalese] society has expressed itself." Nepal was not colonized by India. Its people, who are mostly of Mongoloid racial stock, have been Saivite Hindus throughout recorded history. Even parts of the Rig Veda, Hinduism's earliest scripture, are attributed to a Nepalese sage.


So Hinduism will be only reason to be in Nepal for peace, stability and development.
