Guest guest Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 NEPAL is the only country in the world that celebrates Lord Krishna's Appearance day as a National Holiday. Unfortunately, if the Maoist and their allies are able to overthrow the Nepalese Monarchy, Krishna's Appearance Day will not be officially recognized anywhere in the world. Not even India officially celebrates Lord Krishna. As the enemies of Dharma are closing in on the last Vedic Kingdom on Earth, only the Nations of USA and Israel are offering assistance. Followers and allies of Vedic/Hindu culture should come up with some strategy to help suffering Nepal. Vrndavan NEPAL January 11 Birthday of Great King Prithvi N.
