This Christian denomination was brought to Nepal by a group of indigenous young people who returned to their home country Nepal from Northeast India during the 1980s. Without any involvement of foreign missionaries and evangelists, they started what would later become the NBCC. Therefore, NBCC considered an ―indigenous Baptist organization‖ founded by native pioneers, and that has been part of the World Baptist Alliance (BWA) partnership over 25 years. Among the many other church denominations that exist in Nepal, this research project is focused on the Nepal Baptist Churches and leaders. Nepal is a multicultural, multi-religious, and multi-linguistic, society with people of many races, colors, casts, and ethnicities. Since ancient times, Nepal had been ruled by Hindu kings who shaped Nepal into Hindu society. The Buddhists, Muslims, and Christians, who have always been religious minorities in the country, were often vulnerable to discrimination and persecution. The thesis briefly explores the arrival of the Baptist faith in Nepal, chronicles church planting, the formation of NBCC. The conversion of pioneers and their return home, international partnership, and NBCC‘s growth as an organization and its struggles to success. The study concludes with a (presentation of the) analysis of NBCC‘s effective church planting models and administration and improvement areas based on Baptist church leader‘s interviews and opinions. These findings are gathered in adherence to empirical and qualitative methods and rely heavily on oral history, using oral theory as a method to write a history of the NBCC. iv Table of contents 1

  • Restructuring Spiritualism in New Life: Conversion to Christianity In
    Research Article Restructuring Spiritualism in New Life: Conversion to Christianity in Pokhara, Nepal Prakash Upadhyay Associate Professor, Tribhuvan University, Prithvi Narayan Campus, Pokhara, Nepal [email protected] Article History Received 29 April 2020 Revised 11 September 2020 Accepted 21 November 2020 Abstract Christianity entered Nepal more than three and half centuries ago but religious conversion is still a contentious issue. This paper explores the trend of conversion to Christianity in Pokhara, Nepal. The study method was qualitative and quantitative. Observation, interview schedule and case study guidelines were used to obtain data from 70 converts of AG Church, Fulbari, Pokhara. The study findings reveal that females and oppressed of all caste/ethnicities with low occupational status were more interested in conversion. With no single cause of conversion, process and consequence, there is a nexus between conversion and modernity, consequences and the elements of continuity. With healing and church charity as the key motivations behind conversion, people convert with different intentions to overcome health problems, discontent with present religion, for money, friends and family influences. Christian church activates charities/supports for conversion. Conversion as a choice is a product of modern individualism, and the converts perceived contentment and changes in post-convert life. The accusation that conversion to Christianity is for financial gains may be valid for those who come with expectations, but the majority converts economic status is not satisfactory. In the absence of a state sponsored health and social security system, prevailing socioeconomic inequalities and pseudo-scientific non-medics superstition of church, conversion may be a way to break predominant sociocultural hierarchy/barriers.

    JOURNAL OF ASIAN ARTS, CULTURE AND LITERATURE (JAACL) VOL 2, NO 1: MARCH 2021 Riveting Nepal: A Cultural Flash! By Ms. Mahua Sen [email protected] Abstract “A Nepali outlook, pace and philosophy had prevented us being swamped by our problems. In Nepal, it was easier to take life day by day.” -Jane Wilson-Howarth, A Glimpse of Eternal Snows: A Journey of Love and Loss in the Himalayas. We do sniff the essence of Nepal in these lines! Squeezed in between China and India, Nepal is one of the most fascinating places to visit on earth. Home to the awe-inspiring Mt. Everest, the birthplace of Lord Buddha, this exquisite country stretches diverse landscapes from the Himalayan Mountains in the North to the flat expansive plains in the south. The birth of the nation is dated to Prithvi Narayan Shah's conquest of the Kathmandu Valley kingdoms in 1768. Deep gorges, sky-scraping mountains, exuberant culture and charismatic people – Nepal is the ideal destination not only for adventurers but also for people seeking a peaceful sojourn in the lap of serenity. Keywords Nepal, culture, festival, Hindu, Buddhism 1 JOURNAL OF ASIAN ARTS, CULTURE AND LITERATURE (JAACL) VOL 2, NO 1: MARCH 2021 Festival Flavors Customs and culture vary from one part of Nepal to another. The capital city Kathmandu is drenched in a rich drapery of cultures, a unique silhouette to form a national identity. Nepali culture portrays an amalgamation of Indo-Aryan and Tibeto-Mongolian influences, the result of a long history of migration, conquest, and trade.

  • A Survey of Baptist World Alliance Conversations with Other Churches
    BAPTIST WORLD ALLIANCE Joint meeting of Baptist Heritage and Identity Commission and the Doctrine and Interchurch Cooperation Commission, Seville, 11 July, 2002. A Survey of Baptist World Alliance Conversations with other [1] Churches and some implications for Baptist Identity. (Ken Manley) The Baptist World Alliance has now completed four inter-church conversations. The first was with the World Alliance of Reformed Churches (1973-77); the second with Roman Catholics through the Vatican Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity (1984-88); the third with the Lutheran World Federation (1986-89); the fourth with the Mennonite World Conference (1989- 92).[2] Since then conversations have been held with the Orthodox Church or, more precisely, ‘pre-conversations’ have been shared with the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Istanbul (1994-97) although these seem to have been discontinued by the Orthodox representatives. Although initial conversations with the Anglican Consultative Council were commenced in 1991, formal conversations did not begin until 2000 (because of delays by the Anglicans) and are continuing. The question of further talks with the Roman Catholics is being considered. The General Secretary has also raised the desirability of conversations with Pentecostals, a possibility often canvassed also within the Doctrine and Interchurch Cooperation Study Commission.[3] As we prepare to celebrate the centenary of the BWA it is opportune to review these bilateral conversations, assess what has been achieved, acknowledge what has not been accomplished, explore what these conversations have revealed about Baptist identity, both to others and ourselves, and consider future possibilities and directions. The first striking fact about these conversations is that they did not begin until the 1970s! To understand this it is necessary first to consider the larger question of the relationship between the BWA and the ecumenical movement generally.

Sources Political and cultural history of the period from C 600 to 300 BCE is known for the first time by a possibility of comparing evidence from different kinds of literary sources. Buddhist and Jaina texts form an authentic source of the political history of ancient India. The first four books of Sutta pitaka -- the Digha, Majjhima, Samyutta and Anguttara nikayas -- and the entire Vinaya pitaka were composed between the 5th and 3rd centuries BCE. The Sutta nipata also belongs to this period. The Jaina texts Bhagavati sutra and Parisisthaparvan represent the tradition that can be used as historical source material for this period. The Puranas also provide useful information on dynastic history. A comparison of Buddhist, Puranic and Jaina texts on the details of dynastic history reveals more disagreement. This may be due to the fact that they were compiled at different times. Apart from indigenous literary sources, there are number of Greek and Latin narratives of Alexander’s military achievements. They describe the political situation prevailing in northwest on the eve of Alexander’s invasion.

  • 2020 Yearbook
    2020 YEARBOOK STANDING TOGETHER BY STAYING CONNECTED DIRECTORY GENERAL COUNCIL MINUTES STATISTICS NETWORKING THE BAPTIST FAMILY TO IMPACT THE WORLD FOR CHRIST Dear Brothers and Sisters, The Baptist World Alliance mission statement is “Networking the Baptist family to impact the world for Christ.” Core to this endeavor are ongoing efforts to strengthen relationships and ministry partnerships within the BWA family. Annually, since the late 1920s, the BWA has produced a Yearbook that is today shared with the conventions, unions, associations, and Baptist leaders actively involved in the BWA’s multifaceted ministry “to impact the world for Christ.” Across four sections, the Yearbook details the BWA organizational leadership and member bodies, provides the official account of the proceedings of BWA General Council meetings and the annual statistics of Baptists around the world, publishes financial statements and contribution reports as part of a commitment to financial integrity and transparency, and concludes with a directory of BWA Baptist leaders currently serving on BWA committees and commissions. The Yearbook is provided with the conviction that we are biblically called to encounter one another in loving fellowship and joyful collaboration. While asking for the responsible utilization of included information, it is expected that the Yearbook will enhance ministry partnerships. It is also hoped that the Yearbook will challenge us to pray more concretely for one another and to make direct contact that expresses solidarity with any BWA Baptist experiencing sorrow, hardship, or joy of any kind. May the Lord continue to richly bless you and BWA Baptists around the world. Thank you for your partnership in the mission of God.

    Tributes to Rev. Dr. Doyle Sager Doyle Sager, lead pastor of First Baptist Church in Jefferson City since 1997, passed away Friday (Jan. 22) after a battle with cancer. In addition to a rich legacy of ministry, he leaves behind his wife, Janet, of 48 years, three grown children, eight grandchildren, one brother, one sister, and many loved extended family members. “Doyle was an exceptional preacher and pastor, possessing a sharp mind and a tender heart,” said Melissa Hatfield, FBC’s pastor of youth and missions. “In all he did, love was his motive, and love was his method. God gifted Doyle a pastor’s heart, and once he recognized that at the age of 15, Doyle never looked back. The mantle of shepherd was sacred to him, and he was a tremendous steward of the trust and sacredness of that calling.” Sager, 69, was born in Bethany, Missouri, on Dec. 31, 1951. He received his undergraduate degree from the University of Central Missouri in Warrensburg, and a Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City. “I am thankful for having had the privilege of working with Doyle as my pastor, boss, and friend for almost 30 years,” said Rod Maples, FBC’s pastor of worship, who also worked on staff with Sager at First Baptist Church in Sedalia before they both came to Jefferson City. “There was never a time when he stepped into the pulpit when he was not prepared. He was a humble, faithful servant of God who spoke the word of God with truth and love.” Ordained into the ministry in 1970 by McFall Baptist Church in McFall, Missouri, Sager spent the next 50 years as a pastor.

This is proved by the Swayambhu Puran, some extracts from which are reproduced below :— "The Tathagata also blessed all the people and describ- ed the importance of Nepal area, the fame of Manjudeva. ...Then He circled this forest ( Swayambhu Mount) three times and described its importance and recalled past experiences. As He climbed the mount he said, "In my seven births, I have visited this place seven times, and each time I found it in a different colour". "When Sri Swayambhu Jyoti Rupa (Swayambhu Light) and Sri Sakyamuni ( Lord Buddha ) met face to face, there was auspice everywhere and there were earthquakes of six different kinds which shook ( mount ) Sumeru and the Oceans and Seas, creating mighty waves. There were rains of sweet-smelling water and flowers from the skies. ..Then He folded His hands and scanned— "My respects to him who is the Adi Buddha ( Prime Buddha ) among Buddhas, who has benefitted the world in various forms, who is the mine of all the Light, who is Personification of the Samyak Sambodhi, who is famous for three Qualities ( Gana .) and who is the reason for five Rnowledges, who is without colour and without shape, and who is Omniscient." • "...Then the Lord ( Buddha ) offered gold lotus, paid respects, circled and went to Puchhagra Parbat along with His followers.

  • The Mahabharata
    VivekaVani - Voice of Vivekananda THE MAHABHARATA (Delivered by Swami Vivekananda at the Shakespeare Club, Pasadena, California, February 1, 1900) ​ ​ ​ ​ The other epic about which I am going to speak to you this evening, is called the Mahâbhârata. It contains the story of a race descended from King Bharata, who was the son of Dushyanta and Shakuntalâ. Mahâ means great, and Bhârata means the descendants of Bharata, from whom India has derived its name, Bhârata. Mahabharata means Great India, or the story of the great descendants of Bharata. The scene of this epic is the ancient kingdom of the Kurus, and the story is based on the great war which took place between the Kurus and the Panchâlas. So the region of the quarrel is not very big. This epic is the most popular one in India; and it exercises the same authority in India as Homer's poems did over the Greeks. As ages went on, more and more matter was added to it, until it has become a huge book of about a hundred thousand couplets. All sorts of tales, legends and myths, philosophical treatises, scraps of history, and various discussions have been added to it from time to time, until it is a vast, gigantic mass of literature; and through it all runs the old, original story. The central story of the Mahabharata is of a war between two families of cousins, one family, called the Kauravas, the other the Pândavas — for the empire of India. The Aryans came into India in small companies. Gradually, these tribes began to extend, until, at last, they became the undisputed rulers of India.
