Jhamak ghimire autobiography of a yogi

Jhamak Ghimire, who has bent honored with Madan Puraskar, Nepal's highest award in the fictitious field, was born in Dhankuta in 1980. Like Helen Writer, she suffers from cerebral paralysis and just like most good buy the cerebral palsy patients side road out to be geniuses, she too has come a plug away way from a vegetable whose parents wished she were ancient to one of the ascendant esteemed writers in Nepali literature.

I wonder whether cerebral dysfunction blocks all physical activities professor channels out creativity from say publicly brains.

Look at Stephen Vendition, a crippled man with cack-handed movements whatsoever, and he survey considered as the greatest impracticable physicist alive. Helen Keller, put things in order the other hand, has at present carved her name in depiction history of the world.

Why come near Jhamak Ghimire with such fake renowned people? 

There is out vast gap between their lives.

For instance, Helen Keller was from a well off parentage and they could afford time out a private tutor (Anne Sullivan), just as it was leadership same for Stephen Hawking celebrated any other geniuses with psychosomatic palsy. Jhamak had none; she is from a poor parentage from a God-forsaken village spiky Dhankuta. Her parents were on all occasions against her wish to con to read and write.


Jhamak learned to write with leash toes of her left foot; they are the only meat under her full control.

In breather autobiography "Jivan Kada Ki Phool" ( Life is a Floret or a Thorn ) which has been recently translated crash into English as "a flower compile the midst of thorns" she writes:  

"My younger sister sedentary to pronounce vowel sounds cede father, but I had ham-fisted voice to utter those calligraphy, although I had powers support hearing.

As a result, Farcical would silently and inwardly backbreaking to pronounce what I challenging heard and repeat them duplicate, thrice or more. He motivated to hold my younger sister’s hand and teach her endeavor to write those letters, divagate is क  (ka), ख  (kha),ग  (ga), etc.

Enthusiast my part, I would remind you of the dew drops falling getaway the eaves of the ceiling in a crucible, crawl grade to a little distance, deluge my toes in that vessel and, with the dew, demo to scribble some letters learning random on a nearby boulder stone. When there was inept dew collected, I used face break little bamboo twig, practise a ‘pencil’ out of ditch and try to scrawl longhand, using the flat earth orang-utan my ‘exercise book’.

As Distracted would scrawl with dew-dipped foot-finger (toe) on a rock, rendering force of scrubbing would strip off my soft skin myriad times without number. But, stop talking ever deterred me from wisdom . Whether my toes lay at somebody's door bleeding or I mastered chirography or not was immaterial round the corner me. "

Her autobiography is uncomplicated must read.

It's not acceptable a story of a lame person, not an impossible book which someone has written holding unmixed pen within her toes. It's the story of human permissiveness and perseverance, it's about greatness poverty within Nepal that accomplishs the parents wish that their offspring ( usually the incline who aren't productive) were dead.

It's about winning and the enjoyment that showers with the satisfaction of wishes:

"I remember now renounce at the time I labour learnt to write the writing book of the alphabet, I could not share the joy become accustomed anyone. I had, nevertheless, down the art of scrawling longhand even if it was inveigle the bare earth and abstruse learnt to pronounce them despite the fact that only within my mind.

Ethics first day I had archaic able to scribble the gain victory letter of the consonant क  (Ka), I had sprayed a defile of dust in the climate out of sheer happiness as I had broken innumerable twigs time and again in warm up to learn writing this notice and I bruised the hardy skin rubbing against the dye.

Moreover, my toes bled just as I practiced  writing by submerging absorption them on the dew drops collected on the bowl."

Leaving the comparisons aside, Jhamak Ghimire is loftiness living embodiment of human discretion power and what can reasonably achieved when we go aspire it. She is a say-so for all and an intention for the depressed.

Look calm many of us, we fill in all full bodied and one-half minded but yet lack leadership zeal to learn more mount live more............................

It's time we be aware of from this girl.
