The only "evidence" there is for either Jimi's or Bob Marley's having been in Nepal are restaurants/lodges named for them. There is no verification of the "stone plaque commemorating the spot where Jimi sat"; it could well be a complete fabrication. I have read at least 2 complete bios of Hendrix ("Kiss the Sky" and others) and I don't remember a mention of any such travel. Perhaps if I re-read it I might find one.Sirensongs: Indologist At Largehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15101429745244414871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232195.post-68660487152741472662011-07-07T21:59:34.004-05:002011-07-07T21:59:34.004-05:00u r wrong ok.... u say jimi hendrix was not in nep...u r wrong ok.... u say jimi hendrix was not in nepal....(i m not sure about india) but he was in nepal...do u remember the movie here krishna hare ram starring dev aanand?..ya that was the time Nepal was famous as one of the hippy paradise in the world...i m working on this topic so i`ll let u know more details later.... n remember something u dont know doesnt mean it never happened or exist....badalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09366024255802767157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232195.post-84314355571548201412011-07-07T07:45:57.811-05:002011-07-07T07:45:57.811-05:00get well soon. but the best part is that you will ...get well soon. but the best part is that you will develop a strong immune system.Slogan Muruganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662487161611120966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232195.post-40907680161018011862011-07-05T15:44:49.379-05:002011-07-05T15:44:49.379-05:00A decent man.

By this I mean, just like communism, there are no borders in Islam. Whereas, the idea of "utopia" for a "hindu-nationalist" does not run beyond the realms of Indian subcontinent. A person tagged as "Hindu-Nationalist" asks for few basic things: The segregation of spiritual pursuits from Duty and sense of Justice (dharma) is what is advocated by everyone who is tagged as "Hindu-Nationalist" from everybody in this nation.<br /><br />To oppose this, there are alien ideologies, which believe in concepts like "religion", "Infidel" and in principle deny the segregation of polity and spirituality (Deen and Daulat).<br /><br />The irony is that, most of the Indics or "Hindus", themselves have forgotten about the idea of Dharma. They too have started equating Dharma as synonym to religion and rashtra as synonym to nation-state. hence all the confusion.Nynolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12909443674608239857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232195.post-63715470446430374032010-12-11T06:17:25.057-06:002010-12-11T06:17:25.057-06:00yes its true Indian visitor to make a film about a...yes its true Indian visitor to make a film about an America they perceive, however derogatory or partially-representative that may be<br /><br />Raman<br /><a href="http://www.mandakinihotels.com/" rel="nofollow">india</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232195.post-40528090583069947932010-12-01T01:44:45.682-06:002010-12-01T01:44:45.682-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.vijayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14636583463134606687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232195.post-75309909842484223782010-09-27T13:39:09.853-05:002010-09-27T13:39:09.853-05:00nice to be transported far away...would love to se...nice to be transported far away...would love to see you apply your keen discernment to the USA!brother martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01849270233784745975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232195.post-83086109772231018832010-09-23T08:23:09.384-05:002010-09-23T08:23:09.384-05:00Interesting story.
