True revolution begins with knowledge: PM Shah



KATHMANDU: Prime Minister (PM) Balendra Shah has said that true revolution begins with knowledge.

Extending his greetings via social media on the occasion of the 2570th Buddha Jayanti today, the Prime Minister stated that Nepal, blessed as the birthplace of Buddha, has always stood for non-violence and peace.

In his message, Prime Minister Shah wished for world peace on the birth anniversary of Gautam Buddha, the proponent of peace. Quoting Buddha, he said: “There is suffering; there is a cause of suffering; there is a solution to suffering; and there is a path to eliminate suffering.”

He further added, “The path shown by Buddha leads to the end of suffering. Just as darkness disappears when a ray of light appears, our journey should be one of seeking the light of knowledge and following the path of solving problems.”
