I stood there transfixed. I was told that the Sun would be rising shortly. It was a cold December morning. In the Himalayas. At Nagarkot, in the East of Kathmandu.
There was a motely crowd who had driven up in their cars to see the Sun rise, ‘If the clouds allow" as the friend had said.
The Sun was to rise beyond the Kathmandu valley and from behind the grand ranges of the HImalayas. But it wasnt in the direction of the Sun the people were looking. It wasnt without reason.
Suddenly, without music or a dramatic arrival sequence of a hero in a movie, the Sun announced its arrival. By torching the tip of ranges in the South. The snow in the ranges glimmered and the darkness everywhere else seemed rattled.
It was the most surreal and special sunrise I have ever seen. A good height catches the first rays. That’s why we describe real leaders as ‘tall’. Perhaps. .
