A fight of the racist

#culture vs #COVID19

The question is what is right the government or the #community ? #ratomachindranath is a cultural heritage & it  cannot be overlooked but in #crisis there should be a middle way of saving #culture than #fighting. Who are we fighting with ? 

The chariot pulling festival of Rato machindra Jatra saw a clear tussle of power and culture. On one hand the government in view of COVID19 tried to stopped the locals from pulling the chariot where as on the other local fought back with the police in voicing out their issue of culture and tradition. 

 Due to the strict measures amid COVID-19, the festival was fast-tracked and agreement the  chariot of Rato Macchindranath was pulled up to Sorhakhutte Falcha, in front of Lalitpur Metropolitan Office. The 'Red God' will be toured around the city and then taken back to Bungamati by September 11.

"Many people claimed that Lord Machindranath has faced a lot of pain as it was left under a scorching sun. These claims compelled people to believe that unpleasant situations will arise if Lord Machindranath gets angry," Mana Maya Mulmi, one of the member of Jatra organising committee told ANI.

Amid the COVID-19, Bhaktapur has called off its Bisket Jatra while Kathmandu has called off its Indra Jatra. Similarly, Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Lalitpur jointly called off the Gai Jatra.

A large number of security personnel have been deployed in Pulchowk to prevent any large gathering of people amid the pandemic. Only some designated local people and volunteers were allowed to be in the area on Sunday.

Chariot procession of Rato Machindranath also called as "Bunga Dugh" in Newari meaning the God of Rain and Harvest is the longest Jatra in Nepal, which runs on for months depending widely on astronomy.

ICANN 66 ATLAS III experience Montreal Canada

ICANN 66 ATLAS III in Montreal Canada was a great learning experience in terms of leadership and engagement. It started off with various concept of leadership dealing with conflict and gradually moving towards integration, collaboration and cooperation in the community. The various techniques taught and showcased well practiced scenarios in giving a real time experience. The case study session was really revitalizing and gave new angles and horizons to see problems and conflict with different perspectives.

in one of the casestudy of the Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) on the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data was a great situation of understanding the perspective of leaders from different countries. The story telling was the cherry on top of a cake which was quite different in helping people correlate to situation and problem. I found it quite relating and would further recommend further collaborative case study and real time data and situation.

Similarly, organizing ideas and presentation was a great way to practice our communication skills.
The coaches and facilitators during the break out sessions tried their best to collaborate in helping understating the situation and engagement. At times things were awkward with people looking at your face as there were more communication barriers  but hell ya we all voiced our thoughts and ideas and balanced our  way in coming to a CONSENSUS of  the ICANN way of MULTISTAKEHOLDERIM.

"We may come from different parts of the world but our voice and ideas are same to establish EQUALITY and CHANGE. "
 
The most amazing thing was the break out session  where leaders were isolated and placed in groups with non native speaker of various communities. Moreover, the over all concept defining leaders and leaders in action could be differentiated with the skills and performance.

One thing that was clearly visible was  ATLAS III was a great training for leaders who wanted to sharpen their skills in identifying their role and responsibilities in the community.

ATLAS III also included various networking events which was full of exciting talks and loved the GEMS night out which was a treat.

I think the ATLAS III targeted the various skills at personal and professional level with a combination of new and old leaders putting in their learning and experience.
