We can elect intelligent, compentent, progressive leaders like US President Barrack Obama who are committed to change towards within a working, pragmatic vision of a more sustainable society, and who want this change in the same areas that most of those who elected him. In other words there's concensus on what the change will entail in concrete terms because we can talk about change endlessly, but it comes down to the people, you and I, men and women, what actually will change. If we're all not involved, or partially involved, then the change won't be sustainable. It is essential that men and women learn to do this together, to develop a vision, respect each other’s ideas and methods for accomplishing the vision, and then collaborate at a high level. The rest is easy. For the moment looking at Nepal through Laljahri’s observation that “the men only talk”, and a few years after the 2006 April Revolution in which the Monarchy in Nepal capitulated and a new government took over, I want to explore what we men need to do, need to learn and to believe (because what we believe is intrinsic to what we do and how we act), about our lives and our destinies. What is it about men that needs to change?
