Mr. Pushkar Shah, an adventurous person and pride of Nepal, hailed from a modest Nepalese farmer family from Makaibari Village Development Committee of Dolakha District, is a very calm and distinct from others, beloved by all and anxious to solve the problem surrounding him through his own initiatives. Many people from his community; even his parents used to be surprised by his ability and talents. This is unlikely something different from the common people. He is a freedom fighter and was gun shot during the first Popular People’s Movement in 1990. His involvement into the movement was highly motivated towards establishing peace, democracy, human rights and freedom of expression and rule of law against the autocratic Panchayat regime in Nepal. But again, he was not satisfied from the changed political context even after the movement, which gradually failed to establish and institutionalize the peaceful environment in Nepal as desired. After the sad demise of his lovely father in 1986, who served in the Indian Gorkha Regiment as a freedom fighter, Pushkar went through all sorts of difficulties. Then he had some deep feelings on how he could overcome with the challenges and at the same time full fill his father’s incomplete dreams and his personal desires, both in common. After many sleepless nights of broken desires, one fine morning Pushkar came with a conclusion. Human being is the most intellectual and intelligent social animal. Peace is needed to all spheres of life to both living and non living being for holistic development. It is hard to expect physical and mental, intellectual development until inner peace is attained. It is almost impossible to have a meaningful existence in this planet without having peace. Many ideas, models and theories superseded or proved worthy to solve the day to day problems in the contemporary society based on the empirical study. Many people in the globe have been contributing to establish peace through their knowledge by birth or intuition. Some have developed different models of peace through their practices while solving practical problems. Similarly, others have developed peace initiative learning from the society through other’s encouragement.
