| had to bribe him a coke just to get a hair-cut for himself..... |
Saanai is his name.
The
first face i came-across when i landed in Shiva Marga that early morning of
summer last year.
when i saw him, I did dislike him the way he behaved and stared but
gradually his those behaviors really amazed me with laughter. He was like
that, and I guess the people loved him the way he is, I mean that way weird or unusual
whatever.
You can easily get his Glimpse in Shiva-marga of BP Koirala's Hospital in
Dharan 24/7. He is a well known Face. I should say he is famous in a way there.
As i got to know from
the local residence ' he was left by his own family when they found out he was
mentally unwell'.
He loves Coke all the time, it doesn't matter to him if its summer or winter.
He has this unbelievable craze for Coke and he prefers to drink with
straw each time he holds a bottle.
He isn't a beggar
nor an Orphan. The people in Shiva-Marga are very soft-hearted people, they all
manages ways to provide him with the basic needs. He is even looked-after
whenever he is unwell. People never forget to include him in any moment of happiness. I
should say ‘He is lucky indeed’.
He can't speak
properly and He has this funny walk of Charlie-Chaplin. He wears socks
throughout the seasons let it be summer or winter because he hesitates to show
off his uneven toes.
There is a man named
Ravi Uncle, and 'Saanai' calls him, “Ba”
(father in Nepali).
I was told by
the neighbors that Ravi Uncle takes good care of him and even provides
shelter in his own house with meals every day. Thank God he is in a safe place
with love and care. God bless him and the people of Shiva-Marga.
Everyone in
Shiva-Marga loves Saanai.
