I spent couple of years of my highschool age in Bhojpur Bazar.

I feel like there are at least a few Sajhain from Bhojpur. Let's talk about our memories too.

Well, it is the natural tendency of a pearson to like things that they have experienced in their childhood.

I like purbeli songs more than the pachimi, but I do not mean they are not good. You must have heard sambhu rai, hiranya bhojpure, srawan mukarung, khem gurung and all.

Wari jamuna pari jamuna pakkai sunnu bhaekai geet ho, was from the boarder area of Bhojpur and Sankhuwasabha.

But, I like the songs like balla paryo nirmaya makuri jalaimaa and baini ko daya chha bhane, those are basically from the area you mentioned.

Buttomline is, we enjoy ourselves most, and that is what happening here for me too.

Pikhuwa Wari-Pari Ko Ukalo Oralo Samjhida !

I remember the days in which I used to go along the roads uphill and downhill before and after crossing the PIKHUWA KHOLA with a backback full of books and other stuffs. Once the river was too much flooded due to a heavy rainfall of SRAWAN and I was not much interested to take a long route. I met someone on the way who was much experienced in swimming in the rivers and asked him to help me cross the swollen river. The guy agreed to help me and caught my one arm tightly and entered the river. After some steps into the river, my feet were no more in contact with the river-bed! Oh my god, I was floating on water with my backback full of books and rice and vegetables. I closed my eyes while the person holding my arms was dragging me to the other side of the river against the river current. When I reached the other side, I turned around and watched the river. It was really terrible!

By the way, some of my Batch mates from Yashodhara Ma.Vi. are - Som, Ajamber, Khageshwor, Dipendra, Khom + 60/70 other friends !

Seems More people are from Bhojpur and enjoying all.

Lets share more pictures if you have. Thanks for the pictures and it refreshes old fading memories.

oh.. I can visualize how terrible it would have been.

so, you are from Dalgaun or ahale or closerby.

I followed your stories, they are great and inspiring. Looks like you are studying in mid west, may be one of the universities in IL. Do you know durga paudel who is also living in that region, a post doc in physics.

yeah SurNaTal, i know that place deurali...infact i stayed there for few days while i was in bhojpur. if i am not mistaken deurali is where bhojpur district forest office is located, right? and there was one pradhan didi ..she used to make really good local rakshi and buff sekuwa. LOL. and i still remember those fresh oranges we used to eat in bhojpur......man, thats when i got hooked with oranges coz i wasn't that big on oranges before. i visited lot of places in bhojpur but forgot most their names..... when i read you guys mentioning about those places, it kinda refreshes my memories btw do you know udim rai from bhojpur bazaar....he was one of my friends.

DreamCatcher, you are right, Deurali is the place where the district forest office is located. I may not now udim. At least I can not recall now. Did you bring a khukuri from there?

Deurali is the place where I did my primary school. It is also the place where I spent significant amount of my child and adolthood playing Carim board. I miss that always.

SurNaTal, i guess the school located right below that district forest office is where you did your primary school huh? i don't remember the name of that school though. and no we didn't bring any khukuri from bhojpur though we really wanted since the situation was not that favorable to travel with khukuri....you know what i mean. but of course, we brought rudraksha mala from dingla........when we traveled to remote part from bhojpur bazaar maoists would think that i were one of their members and would come and talk to me since i have mongolian look though i am not rai. LOL. that was interesting......and you know what i liked the way people used to say "bhojpur' as "भच्चुर" and liked that place itself

yea, the school was Mahendro daya pra. bi.

"भच्चुर" , yea, I love that.

I thank you all guys for sharing your feelings in this thread. It reminded me all my years in this beautiful place. Keep adding.

HAPPY DASHAIN AND TIHAR 2064 B.S. TO ALL BHOJPURE FRIENDS AND ALL SAJHA USERS AND THEIR NEAR AND DEAR ONES . MAY THIS DASHAIN AND TIHAR BRING PEACE AND PROSPERITY IN OUR COUNTRY!

I was born in Bhojpur. Even I become US citizen I feel PROUD saying I am bhojpure  nepali ! I am bhojpure Citizen by birth. Bhojpur is the best place to love and know.

Hami bhojpureharu pani sangathit hunu paryo, bhojpure para ko ramailo garnu paryo. Bhojpure bhanne bittikai malai ta aafno pana mahasus hunchha tyahi bhayera maile yo thread ma saath diyeko.

Good Luck to all bhojpureli

Babu lal ji,

 

  Great thought, feelings, spritits. That is what the place is, BHOJPUR, KHUKURI KO DHAR JASTAI CHAMKILO.

 

 

 

 

As usual and as always! Dashain has knocked our door this year too! So
swiftly! So blessingly! So entusiastically! 

In this auspicious occation, I would like to wish we all a HAPPY BADA DASHAIN and SUBHA DEEPAWALI 2064. May the Goddess Durga bless all of us for the peace, progress and prosperity in us all. May the Goddess bless our country for the SUSTAINED PEACE.

We know. We feel. We perceive. What it all mean to us to be far from our land; our family; our loving ones; our culture; our society; and all ourness; in this time of togetherness; time of fun; time of joy; and time of happyness?

There have always been so much more value of festivals away from home, and this time is no exception. We are all counting down the days and waiting so desperately the day we again boom our enjoyment; the day of celebration; the DASHAIN and the TIHAR. Let's celebrate the biggest festival of ours in all
way possible, here in this BHOJPUR THREAD too.

श्री सिद्धकाली भगवतीले हामि सबै को कल्याण गरुन।

Sur Na Tal

My best friend is from Bhojpur.. so i know only few things about bhojpur.. i really wanted to visit there.. but i had to drop off the plan due to maobadi's killings...  
Anyway... if anyone says he/she is from bhojpur.. all the old memories of my best friend flash back in my eyes like yesterday...
Thank you very much for bringing the thread on bhojpur.
I have immense respect for bhojpure people.

Very nice to see a substantial bunch of 'Bhojpures' here in Sajha. I can't really call myself one of you folks, since I wasn't fortunate enough to be born there - my father was born and raised in Bhojpur; I could, however managed to visit there once. I made a trip to Bhojpur during the Winter holidays after finishing the 5th grade, and before jumping onto the 6th! We started in Hile, touched Pakhribas, walked all the way pass the never-ending downhills of Deeyale, and through Akkar, then the Arun river shore. We had a chance to oversee those tiny plateaus of  Suntale, beautiful Bhojpur Bazaar, Taksaar and more while returning, en route to the airport. Can't recall much --- yet I say - it's majestic!!!

Just found some footage of Khandbari uploaded by some tourist in the following site:
