Dear Ms ITIR
Could you please share some of the important tips on international relations to improve bilateral understanding among neighbours. Mind that Nepal has (most of the times) very bitter relations with our neighbours though we are very co-operative to them.

Dear friend
"Vasudev kutukbkam" entire world is a family.This is the teaching of our indian culture and tradition.This is a wonderful site to to know our inner self and each other and can make a world a family.
We created countries, boundaries,religions,cast,race for any reason.But this the time to realize that we are one and naturally interconnected with each other which we can just realize by watching inhale and exhale of our breaths. The source is same without any discrimination of religion and boundaries, equally for all living life of universe .When we understand this simple thing then we must understand how our and other's life is equally important, valuable and respectable .
We should follow the nature's rule,God has given us a human life not for destruction but to look after the wellbeing of all living life so that peace and harmony can establish in this planet.I shall be happy if we could be a friend with harmonious relationship.

- ITIR TOKSOZ,
Thank you for befriending me on this site.
I've just returned to the University after a 12year lapse. (I'm 39) I wanted to let you know that I'm in the process of coordinating the Hiroshima Day Project here in Portland, OR in an effort to educate the public as to the perils of nuclear weaponry.
I will be having some Hiroshima and Nagasaki surrviors coming to Portland in August with the help of the Japan America Society of Oregon.
Now I just need to find a camera and post a photo.
-Let's stay in touch,
Michael Sloan
