After the eradication of some fatal diseases of terai region
of Nepal,
people started migrating from hills to terai. Nar Bahadur's family also
migrated to terai. Nar Bahadur was a rich farmer. His family
got due regard in the society. But the problems arise when some members of his
family suffered from psychological disorders.
They were occasionally cured but the problems still cursed when other
family members started to be mentally sick one by one. Nar Bahadur’s family
members {matured and educated} came to the point that now the family has been
attacked by Veer.
What is Veer? I asked a question to Mr. Govinda, one of the sons
of Nar Bahadur.
He said, ‘Veer is a kind of spirit which is made by the power of mantra.
Playing with Veer is very dangerous. My father {Nar Bahadur} played with Veer by
practicing tantra, mantra and then he controlled it. He could do many amazing things
like running on the wall. His Veer was like a servant who always
followed his command. That Veer used to do all works at home within a matter of second
like spreading fertilizer in the field, shifting the sacks of paddy in the
storehouse etc.
Mr. Govinda is a well qualified lecturer and campus chief with multiple degrees. He still believes on ghost, Veer,
spirit and so on. His brother Hari Bahadur is a renowned politician in Nepal.
I asked Mr. Hari Bahadur about it. He says, ‘Yes, I believe on the Veer.’ Hari
Bahadur himself was suffering from mental diseases in the past. Now he is OK. I
asked him, ‘What is the relation between the Veer and the mental problem of
your family members?’ He explained, ‘Actually, when my father decided to shift
family from hill to terai, he could not find the way to settle the Veer. Later, while
coming from there, he settled the Veer inside a big tree on the way. So, that Veer troubled all members of our family from generation to generation. My own
son had suffered. He is OK now. There are many members who are fully or
partially troubled.’ Miss Mandira, the wife of Hari Bahadur says, ‘One of our
relatives have already committed suicide. I think Veer made him commit suicide.’ Her husband Mr. Chakra Bahadur emphasized on Veer again, ‘It is heard that the tree where my father had
berried the Veer, sometimes makes sounds so loudly that the people feel like
whole earth is going to be blasted.’
Mr. Rajan, the son of Hari Bahadur believes that if the member
does not follow the arrange marriage {it means they should marry any girl secretly
running away without the approval of their parents} then the Veer can not attack the future children. Ravi, the son of Mr. Govinda agrees with it. Santa Bahadur,
the eldest son of Nar Bahadur says, ‘The series of attack by veer can be
stopped if one of the members of our family gives sacrifice of animal to our
family deity. But the problem is that sacrificing is prohibited in our religion’
I took this matter to Dr. Ram Prapanna, who is a
psychiatrist. I wanted to find the actual cause of the matter. He checked some
members who had suffered in the past. He said, ‘Most of the family members are
brilliant by their mind.’ Professionally, it is found that most of the members
are playing leading role in their offices. They are really extra ordinary. Dr.
Ram Prapanna says that the brilliant mind may be the cause of the disease. He
says, ‘The disease has been transformed from one generation to
another.’
I came to conclusion that there was no Veer and no any
attack. Actually the problem was heredity. I support that the mental problem
was transformed from one generation to another. After all, there is still a
question. Where has the disease transformed from at first? The answer is
easy. It came from Nar Bahadru himself. Being uneducated he believed on tantra,
mantra, Veer etc. He heard several things about Veer in the community through
conversation and folk stories. He tried his best to find and control Veer that
was not real in the reality. Thinking deeply about it and concentrating his
whole time in such unreal thing isolated him form the real world and he
suffered from mental problem. His mentality affected his coming children and
symptoms of psychological disorder appeared in them. Later it become so serious
that they suffered from mental disease.
What is the final opinion? Before the discovery of medical
science, people believed on spirit to cause mental problem. Some of them
succeeded to cure it by traditional method like worshiping, sacrificing etc which nothing more than a power of subconscious mind followed by faith.
However, there are lots of questions which even science can not answer. Is mental
disease caused by spirit? It is still a question to research. I have already
presented some examples of spirit attack to cause mental disease in this site.
