Observations on the television channels

There are certainly lot more channels than when I left Nepal. Cable is a staple affairs now. In Nepal, there seems to be a lot more entertainment channels originating from India, mainly related to Bollywood movies. There are Cinemax and HBO but they are in the original basic package, not premium channels as in the States. There are channels devoted to the issue of faith here as well. One noted difference is in the message they convey. There is definitely a Christian channel here and I saw Pat Robertson-the forecasting, self-professed messenger of God, the Christian God, of course. There was one noted difference in the message relating to the faith channels. In the West they convey message to be a good, good fearing Christians, and yell in the name of Jesus. In the channels here they discuss the ancient texts, but tell people to be good human being before being good Christians, Hindus or Muslim. In addition, they have a yoga sessions to help people better their healthy and thus their lives.
