I was born in a ‘Hindu’ family. My home district is Morang. For almost two decades, I have been living in Kathmandu. Ever since I was a child, I was a little different—that is, rebellious. It was in my nature to try to find answers to questions like why and how in everything. During that time, one day, a question arose in my mind about my name. The name that was given by Pandit in the days of Navaran was ‘Mahadev’.
By the time I reached my teenage years, I had almost decided to become a monk. But the question arose in me again: why become a monk, for what? What about being a monk? etc. questions, and because I could not find the correct answer, I retreated from that thought.
When I became a youth, my thoughts changed, and I stood oppositely to the exact thought of a teenager. It has been almost ten years since I gave up my caste and religion. I don’t want to get involved in any religious activities. Yes, this is what my constitution says. I did not see the scientific reason or justification for such religious and social beliefs. Now, I am an extreme atheist. This means I am a person who only believes in facts. My personal constitution does not allow me to do anything other than be right about nature, science, and humanism.
