Out your Cyberstalker! Gregurev v. Ranjit Rana

Ranjit Rana IMPERSONATES Nina Gregurev

2011-07-27T01:09:00.000-07:00

I googled Gregurev & Ranjit Rana to see what Rana is up to at the moment - and the above entry came up.

It reads:
Blogger User Profile belongs to Nina Gregurev.
Team Members: Major General Ranjit S.J.B. Rana
On Blogger Since 2006.

This ridiculous little man, most definitely not a MAJOR GENERAL or anything beyond a failed private employed for a short time as a storeman in the Australian Defence Force - has once again appropriated another person's identity in order to continue his demented campaign of slander, attempts at character assassination, vilification, harassment, and persecution.

Below is a site which provides an accurate summary of Adelaide resident, Ranjit Rana's campaign of over 20 years as a stalker and cyberstalker of many people, including Nina Gregurev.

Fatal Flaws. Navigating Destructive Relationships with People with Disorders of Personality and Character.

2011-06-07T23:56:00.000-07:00

The above Fatal Flaws. Navigating Destructive Relationships with People with Disorders of Personality and Character, 2005, by Stuart C. Yudofsky, M.D., American Psychiatric Publishing Inc., Washington and London, is an easy to read and understand book written for both professionals and laypersons. I highly recommend it to anyone who is or has been bothered by stalking, cyberstalking, or has become enmeshed in confusing and destructive relationships. It will help you make sense of what has been happening in your life and remove whatever doubts you may have concerning your own part in dealing with your stalker or cyberstalker. You did not ask for this. No matter what you did, would have done, should have done, you could not have avoided the agony of this. No matter how skilled, loving, or no matter how clear you were about not being interested in the person, things would still have turned out the way they have, unless of course your stalker, cyberstalker, or person with whom you had a fraught relationship would have been willing to go into therapy and change.

Read it. Parts of it are on Google books or Google Academic, I cannot quite remember, but the above link will take you to some information on it.

This is another possible link below where the person has added some information to her google documents which has been of great personal help to a number of people.

Out your Cyberstalker! Gregurev v. Ranjit Rana: More filth spewing out of Ranjit Rana's disturbed little mind - my additions added in red

An email received by a friend who has never even met Ranjit Rana and has nothing whatsoever to do with him

2011-03-16T19:10:00.000-07:00

This is an email I received from Darda Gregurev on 15th March, 2011 after I contacted her because of her googlepage concerning Ranjit Rana who contacted me presumably through Facebook with an intrusive email.

-------------------------------------

"I have this moment found two emails AS IF FROM DIANA but in reality from a very disturbed person living in Adelaide whose name is

Ranjit Shamsher Jung Bahadur Rana,

formerly of Hackney Road, Hackney, and now apparently homeless. Rana likes to pretend to an education he does not posess, and in other emails he pretends to a Schizophrenia he does not have, in order to try and escape prosecution and jail time - he does however have personality problems. He is also an undischarged bankrupt - again. In addition, his ex-wife and first daughter wish to have nothing whatsoever to do with him. As well, the mother of his second daughter and the daughter, wish to have nothing to do with him either. He has been banned from all three universities in Adelaide. He is well known to the police and Court system in South Australia, and to the Federal Police.

He has a long history of stalking and cyberstalking attractive women and it appears Diana Grave has caught his attention via her Facebook Page which showed some photos of my daughter Nina Gregurev with her friend Diana. Nina Gregurev has a Restraining Order against Ranjit Rana who lately has been using ramhazur as his email name. (He constantly falsefies names and likes to use the names of his victims to try and cause trouble with their friends and acquaintances. He has been acting in this way towards my daughter Nina for well over twenty years. He vilifies and insults people in every way he can.) Diana and Nina are certainly not the only people he has treated this way. Neither young woman has given Rana any reason for his behaviour and above all, he has NEVER had any form of relationship with these victims.

I happened to meet with Diana last night, and she told me Ranjit Rana had sent messages to her on her Facebook enquiring about Nina Gregurev. Diana decided to terminate her Facebook page because of this rabid little dwarf.

Please accept my apologies and my daughter's apologies for any trouble this excuse for a human being has caused. I had a small googlepage called Out Your Cyberstalker Gregurev vs Ranjit Rana. Googlepages closed some years ago, but I started a bit of a blog on the same matter.

It now seems I must go to the trouble of opening a webpage outlining the troubles this person causes. I have warned him previously that I will continue to respond in kind to his provocations. As that makes me the only person left in Adelaide who responds in some way I guess I have been asking for trouble. However I cannot let people read his garbage and not try to set them straight.

This was the message you would have received as if from Diana.

When many people were (apparently) receiving emails as if from Nina Gregurev, I checked with Leo Notenboom on how Ranjit Rana gained access to her email account. He does not. The following article answered the question: "How do spammers send email that looks like it comes from me?" The address I have for that article (from 2008) is: http://ask-leo.com/how_do_spammers_send_email_that_looks_like_it_comes_from ..... Otherwise, google Leo and check his archives.

More filth spewing out of Ranjit Rana's disturbed little mind - my additions added in red

2010-12-04T21:42:00.000-08:00

An unpleasant little account by Ranjit Shamsher Jung Bahadur Rana, calling himself Ram Hazur, and libelling, stalking, harassing and vilifying the Gregurev family. Beware, all blond women everywhere - you could so easily fall victim to the same treatment. All that is necessary is that he catches a glimpse of you, and the rest is fantasy.

Who the bloody hell am I WEIRD HEADING?

HOW TO HAVE SUCCESSFUL NERVOUS BREAKDOWN IN AUSTRALIA AND LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER PART ONE
More advice from the experienced Ranjit Rana on how to rip off Australian institutions - he is the kind of immigrant a country needs desperately as we are so culturally enriched by this little wanker from Nepal. Yellow Highlights added by writer.

There is high percentage of migrants suffering from some form of schizophrenia (paranoid or schizoaffective or much more) coming to Australia or for that that matter from a person’s country of birth to another alien country. Ranjit Rana should know

Such people self-select and try to get away from their family/friends/environment which they blame for their personal problems, like you did, Rana.

One of the interesting aspects of Rana's personality disorder is that he completely reverses this situation (among many other situations). He is the aggressor, the bully, the problematic trouble maker, wherever he goes. Yet he will continually ascribe his own actions and thinking to other people. It is apparently common among a particular sub-group of the disturbed.

This could be genetic, environmental, and one’s unique personality factors. Today, I want to explore these factors within the context of a woman who has been bullying me for over a decade. She is known as Darda Gregurev, and her husband is a Croatian, and she is of Dutch origin. Her son is a South Australian Police Officer, and her daughter is an unsuccessful model/fashion designer from her psychiatric condition called schizoaffective disorder (i.e. a form of schizophrenia with severe and unpredictable mood swings). She is Nina Gregurev.

Darda Gregurev is indeed from The Netherlands, her husband is indeed from Croatia, her son does not know Ranjit Rana and wisely ignores him, and her daughter is a successful, healthy young woman who neither deserves the filthy garbage Ranjit Rana spews daily - at ANYONE, dear Reader, so beware - nor pays any attention to him whatsoever.
The mother has confessed in http://www.chovil.com/guestbookold2.html dated Wednesday, June 24, 1998 as following:

There is nothing to "confess". Very strangely, Ranjit Rana wants to be known as suffering from Paranoid Schizophrenia - of course, he blames that condition on the Australian Defence Force. He was employed for a short time as a store person or something equally thrilling - and guess what, dear Reader, he was HATED by the guys in his unit, which he dragged down. NOW accuses THEM of homosexual rape, with himself the victim. Case thrown out of Court, as usual, but Rana still feels entitled to a great deal of money in compensation. Like his daughter Maya said, "get a job you lazy bum". Perhaps I should track down some of his old army buddies and let them know in detail what he has published on the internet about them.

Darda's late mother was a survivor of the extermination camps in WWII in Germany and also survived the Death Marches. She died from a heart attack at an advanced age. I don't think people die from schizophrenia unless they suicide. Perhaps Rana will go that far in his odd attempts at demonstrating the "reality"of his pretend Schizophrenia. (Perhaps to get a pay-out from the Defence Force? Hah, hah, hah.)

late mother died with dementia, and various other ailments including paranoid schizophrenia.

5. Her late mother was a survivor of extreme abuses by her family, being in Nazi led concentration camp, and migration to Australia.

Darda's mother was in two Nazi extermination camps and survived. Something to be proud of but of course this little weenie with his fascist outlook on life cannot recognise that. Nothing much happened to Ranjit Rana, but he has made a career out of his so-called "misfortune", i.e. his great grand papa being out-manoeuvred and not accessing the money pressed from the unfortunate peasants in Nepal.

fore her mother died that Darda Gregurev was recognized by her mother like her daughter did and were very suspicious that Darda Gregurev was a witch. Witch indeed, what a paranoid idiot!g a care taker of most difficult moody, suspicious and psychotic family members can be very very difficult indeed and overwhelming to any reasonable and compassionate people even. The medications based side effects worsened Darda Gregurev’s late mother, and just before her death in 1990s that the patience of Nina Gregurev Got all the details wrong again, ... nothing but fantasy.

Such compassion from this little piss-ant! Such pretence. He is projecting what his mother went through with him, dear Reader, not to mention his Australian wife, silly poor girl. Manic psychotics like Rana are often out of control but today he can actually write a sentence - on medication, again, little gnome? Or more likely, who did you plagiarize?

na thinking her mother was a witch, and some Virgin Madonna’s voice told Nina to stab her mother and so on. I will explain as why Nina became like that below.

SUCH CRUDE AND INCREDIBLE INSULTS TO CHRISTIAN PEOPLE, WHICH IS WHAT HE INTENDS OF COURSE.

do not have compassion for the psychotics, and also who fear from them significantly and uncontrollably. I note most psychotics are devoutly religious and believe that they are Holy Ghosts or Moses of Virgin Mary and so on.

11. Darda Gregurev has tried to understand and get explanation of the phenomenon called schizophrenia, and its effects on individuals.

12. Darda Gregurev is really hateful of schizophrenia, and is waiting for the day when medication can target the disorder carefully.

13. Darda Gregurev thanks the weird site which is full of psychotics from all over the planet.

Must be the reason Ranjit Rana accessed the site, one would be led to think?

DUH! CONFESSES WHAT, FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE? THE GNOME CANNOT READ.

Randall Watters will be delighted to know he is a psychotic mormon selling marijuana. Go check him out in San Diego, little Rana. I am sure he would be happy to set you straight on a number of issues.

"Paranoid" is Rana's projection, dear reader. Of course, Rana has not travelled much and is obviously inflamed by the Gregurev's family's travels around the world - most of which he has no knowledge of. Nina was in New York a few years ago and was interviewed on television and print news. As Rana crawls the web looking for every little detail, he came across that information somehow.

Ranjit Rana is still crapping on about how Nina travelled (shock, horror)...with a MAN...

In reality her life-friend (blue-eyed, blond, tall and educated - 4 degrees - gainfully employed, with absolutely no mental illness) David B. stayed at home that particular time, and Nina travelled with her ...MOTHER!!!!

r as she could not analyze the psychotic claims made by the founding man of JW. Was Brooklyn the New Jerusalem like NEW YORK of the NEW WORLD?
an

Darda Gregurev’s mother joined the JW during second world war in occupied Netherlands, and was send to jail and later to concentration camps in Germany. She worked as a pioneer after the war for JW, and got married and Darda and her family lived in Brooklyn in total obedience to the old men within the JW community. Details are completely wrong, as usual

4. Darda Gregurev became rebellious with JW community and caused much heartache to her parents.

Rana became rebellious in Nepal and caused enormous heartache to his mummy and wanted to kill his violent daddy. Even the dog died. He HAS suffered, dear Reader! And no, none of the crap below invented by Rana has any truth in it. He is psychotic a lot of the time and lies all the time.

As for the Homeless and criminals? Yes, some, especially Ranjit Rana who went there for a meal provided by Christians. Paid for, and served by, Christians who do not even expect any thanks.

Christian who talks in tongue like the real psychotics in Baptist Westcare Church in Whitmore Square, Adelaide for the homeless and criminals. Like Rana.elighted to meet cyberspace wise with Randy the druggie psychotic Christian who sells marijuana and also speaks in tongues about Jesus, Virgin Mary and Hairy Fairy Joseph and much more.

POOR NINA, NOTICED BY RANA WHEN SHE WAS 19 and HE IS STILL OBSESSED BY HER.

I met her daughter (Nina) when she was 19 years old in 1990 in Kensington TAFE, when she was doing her matriculation. She was very attractive and e. I noticed she was highly unpredictable TO RANA . hat. Nina was occasionally very kind, and most of the time
DID NOT WANT TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THAT WEIRDO WANKER RANA, AS SHE WAS WITH HER HANDSOME TALL BOYFRIEND ADAM LINDBLOM.

... and she would ask me to marry her ??? HAH HAH HAH In your dreams!

e thousands of excuses as why I could not. I was older 15 years than her. heI loved r especially for compassion as she was just not in this planet, and all she did was sweetly talked about bible and fashion and fashion designing. Her venture as fashion designing came to abrupt end in 1990s, when she almost made her parents bankrupt RANA IS AN UNDISCHARGED BANKRUPT PEOPLE, NINA'S PARENTS ARE FAR FROM BANKRUPT. ns to a girl friend Audrey and the products were not good and were a disaster too. It put a strain in my relationship with Audrey.
BTW, Nina was very successful

The same Audrey he rubbishes on the internet for her sexual practices and her smell? Rana just loves women, dear Reader.

n she went to Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) for learning fashion designing. She could not last even six months as she suffered a significant nervous breakdown in 1991 mid.

Nina was at RMIT for almost two years and did extremely well in her first year. Her family brought her home in the next year as she was not in a position to finish her exams. She did become ill but has overcome that and is doing very well indeed - unlike Rana who still pretends to Paranoia. Of course, ar--holes like Ranjit Rana cannot and will not let a person get on with recovery and life in general - because that is something that he has not managed in his nearly 60 years...

Ranjit Rana wants to be a Paranoid Schizophrenic - thinking he will receive a compensation pay-out from the Defence Force.

Ranjit Rana was and is continually hated at the universities he attended. Free food? For Rana himself - but Nina Gregurev eats at her home.
As a matter of fact, she provides both money and volunteer labour to people in need of free food - like Rana.

her loopy friends to get free food therein, and I just hated it. My privacy and compassion was being abused by them. I just lost interest in Nina and her new found religion and fruit loop friends. I just was busy.

I tried to contact Nina few times and she went police with all sorts of sexual fetishes and fantasies out of this planet about me. She took retraining orders against me and I did not challenge her to give her dignity, respect and stability.

Nina's family have kept numerous documents sent by Rana, and have also filed many others with police prosecutors in South Australia. Many of them contain marriage proposals and declarations of undying love, as well as his hate filled mail and long documents of Ranjit Rana's court battles with everyone else in Australia.

Suddenly I see psychotic mum Darda making all sorts of allegations about me in her bullying, and hate site against me and my family for no logical reason. I just do not have time for them as I have to fight my own battles. I guess Darda is jealous as my children are successful in modeling and fashion.

His two daughters (by different mothers) do not want anything to do with Rana.

Dear Reader, Rana is projecting - i.e. he ascribes to others everything he is and does himself:-

s a sadistic and narcissistic psychotic and all of her allegations against me have no basis in real evidence.

2. Nothing I can do to wipe her psychotic hate against me in cyberspace.

3. I let her express her speech as I value democracy, and I have deep compassion to her and her family who are known psychotics by her own confession. Thus, I give her dignity and respect.

RANA IS AN IDIOT WHO CONSTANTLY LIES EVEN TO HIMSELF AND ALWAYS TO OTHERS, ESPECIALLY ABOUT HIS MOTIVES

4. I am not like what cyberspace makes of me as any one can be my avatar based on all of the raw data that is available in the free public domain.

5. I just love all neurotics, psychotics and personality disordered humanity at large as I am a Buddhist and have the adage “let me live and I let you live.”

Last week, he was a MOSLEM and could not wait to go to that bastion of strict and unpolluted religion, Indonesia. He imagined he would be welcome. They would love a little HINDU from Nepal, being such welcoming people to all the refugees of the world.

Rana cannot grasp the concept of charity and people working as volunteers, can he? I would have thought it more of a faux-pas to be a client than a person giving him charity...... He seems to be unaware of the differences. (Not that I object to people obtaining free food when necessary.)
Recently, I met Nina while she was not doing psychotic modeling, and fashion designing, and was a soup kitchen waitress with the Baptist Church for the homeless. But it is Rana who attends soup kitchens and is homeless. Why rubbish the people who provide his necessities to him? Well, I know the reason, but it does show such a hang-up about needing their help. I was with old Uncle Wally for making another DVD called “Wally loves his friends who have successful nervous breakdown in Adelaide.” It is going to be funded by Arts SA. Rostrevor, and in Swan Street, and his partner Trish Hupatz is he owner of Aqua Boutique in Norwood, which is a trend setting fashion outlet among the hippest set in Adelaide.

So he admits he spews forth nothing but lunatic rantings and ravings......In the next epistle of my lunatic ranting and ravings I will explain, and make you all understand my connection to Wikileak and Julian Assange, and how the so called Obama administration documents from CIA to any body or anything was leaked. I say how we hacked them legally.

agement (International Marketing, International Economics and Asian Studies) at Flinders University. Bachelor of Management (Marketing) at University of South Australia. Then getting Graduate Certificate in Management at Adelaide University. Further, Master of International Business, and Master of Arts (International Relations) at Deakin University that I got, which was all for free. I got after having successful nervous breakdowns in each places and performing successful negotiation. That is what is my gift of the gab.

In the first place, did Ranjit Rana EVER finish any degree at any university?

In the second place, his only interest in any institution, whether educational or for entertainment or employment, is to SUE them for COMPENSATION. Usually he loses.

Although I have seen (supposed to be kept confidential) court papers between various Universities and Rana agreeing to pay him a small sum of money with the proviso for him NEVER to set foot on campus again.... I really do not think the universities have acted wisely here. Ranjit Rana NEVER got paid out by any hotels or casinos, they have a much better way of dealing with little rats like him.

So, Rana says he received (supposedly) these qualifications because he talked them into it?

Possibly, dear Reader, as he costs a lot of money when organizations want to defend themselves in Court. He is bankrupt and a nuisance litigator, they pay lawyers. He certainly did not get a degree (if ANY) with his native "intelligence".

once how Nepal governed Tibet after defeating the mighty Han Chinese Army. Nepalese thought all of Tibet’s roads were built with gold. All Nepalese went to Tibet with gold fever rush, and left theirs’ loving ones behind. It is this setting the most romantic “Muna Madan” was written by a great lunatic romantic literature genius. He was neglected by equally a lunatic and pious wife.

Ciao and we shall meet soon.

These are the important ones to check out Ranjit Rana's character

Comments from Maya Rana, Ranjit Rana's estranged daughter, concerning her "sperm donor's" ranting on the internet, taken from a Nepalese website:

M Rana, on January 15th, 2008 at 3:45 am Said:Ranjit. You are full of shit. How dare you claim that you are my father, indeed you are nothing as an abusive psycho apparently as your father was. I know what you did to my mother, and she never said one word. Everyone else has told me what horror you bestowed on her.And what sort of man are you to think you have ANY claim into the person I am today. You are a dead beat father who has not contributed financially or materialistically to my upbringing. You owe thousands of dollars in child-support none of which ever was paid.You are a stranger to me. That is how I have wanted to keep it since I was 11 years old. I have knowledge of who I am am and what I want since then, and I dont want you or your shit in my life. You are a waste of space.Finally stop writing letters to my mother, why do you do that? Go out and get a job!! She left you decades ago, you are hearing from me directly I DONT WANT ANYTHING EVER TO DO WITH YOU. So you no longer need to waste time, energy or thought into attempting to contact us.AND the final straw was you contacting my workplace, its borderline stalking, and if you do something ever like this again. I will be taking the matter forward with legal action and police involvement hastily.Forget us so that you stop your psychotic behavior in contacting us. We are estranged from you for many reasons. Stop telling people to google me, I do not identify myself as Nepalese, I AM AUSTRALIAN, and will not tolerate this absurdity.You need not post your family history on the web, no body cares! LIKE I SAID STOP WASTING TIME ON THE NET AND GO GET A JOB, YOU BUM!

Rana's answer to his beloved eldest child:

Ranjit S.J.B. Rana, on January 18th, 2008 at 6:40 am Said:The abuse of a child that was poisoned by an uneducated Oz grandma called Pauline. Hey what a mess? duh!This is directly from my dear Maya Rana.Dear child, you know I contributed to you and your mother financially. Sheused it in the G. Whitlam (labor looney) mattered Family Court. Your mother fought me in the Family Court from 1982 till 1989.

He has own many battles and yet is going to win the mother of them all….Australia and the Oz Army. You keep your foul mouth open then you get not even a dime.You are what you are good on ya ‘me moy matey ‘daugther.I am suing your The News.com blog for defamation. Go on doing and I keep on counting and making money. I will go laughing all the way to the bank. ha ha ha and you will get nothing.Where is your compassion you silly dill Oz cow?Learn what is true and what is false! It seems you do not know about it as you have been brained washed by your silly Pauline!How do you know if I have a job or not? I have now given all my possession to the unfortunates in Nepal and beyond to return to stardust.I was born naked and die 6 feet down under naked. You are just a gene program between me and your whacky and negative mother. So shall you continue me dear.I wish you all the best and watch.I have my good friend Dr. Deepak Raj Pant, Chairman of Nepalese in Victoria to monitor my interest. You have known him and his daughter In Adelaide.So long for now.

Ranjit Rana on his late mother Rajya Laxmi Rana's poems via Sangeeta Thapa, on December 23rd, 2007 at 6:14 am Said:
‘Joonle Pani Polcha’ that is ‘Moonlight Also Burns’ according to my late mother Rajya Laxmi Rana
My cousin Sangeeta Thapa in 2006 sought my support, and I am proud that she is going to be successful in her project to put together my late mother’s poems and short story together. I am very happy with the title of the compilation of these items in a book to be published. I am sure that my late mother will be immensely grateful to Sangeeta and sweet name that is poetry in itself.
Joon in Nepalese is a feminine persona of the full moon. My mother had immense vocabulary of Sanskrit. She used to mesmerize me with her description of the moon in 50 different ways. I asked her how she could do this and she always told me about her learning Sansrit with various Brahmin teachers.
She told me that she was not the eldest daughter of the Malla Zamindar (property owner) of Bardia in Western Nepal. In fact, she told me sad saga how her three or four other eldest brothers and sisters had passed away in early years of her development. This was probably related to the high mortality of children in Nepal before 1940s and 50s like malaria, diphtheria and plethora of other illnesses. My mum was apparently not healthy and was not expected to live like her siblings. Somehow, she survived and her father and mother were indifferent to her needs.
She wanted to do medicine and could not fulfill this desire and did her studies in Patna University in Intermediate of Arts (IA). Her needs were rebuffed also not to marry forever by her parents. Soon after she finished her IA that she was used as a strategic test by her father to be married in Rana household. My father’s reputation was not good and was reviled as Hitler by his own mother. Somehow, my mum’s maternal uncle was married to my Rana grandfather’s niece. She became the matchmaker to my unwilling mum.
My mum told me that from day one she smelt a rat of the fake marriage. The next day all the jewels and furniture that was supposed to belong to my dad was gone. It was taken over by my domineering grandmother. My grandmother daily henpecked my grandfather. My grandmother was very cold and demanding with all. No wonder that my father went to become a cruel Hitler.
I return to my Malla grandpa. He used my mum to test the bright future of his other children. In the living lot of Malla children then my mum was the eldest. Under her, she had two younger sisters and four brothers. It seems my Malla grandpa had several wives and many of them passed away in young age. Once, my mum was accepted in Rana household, my mum’s brother was married to the Rana Maharaja Padma Shamsher’s daughter, who was the youngest one of his. My mum’s second sister apparently fell in love with uncle Himalaya (Sangeeta’s mum). She was the favourite of the Malla household and she could do whatever she liked. If my mum was a tragedy then her sister was full of comedy. For example, my aunty always dwelled in being a living prankster by playing jokes on people. I have seen her design and build a quirky Rocket House, and in my childhood, my mum told me about her punishing a hilly billy drunken aunt by letting mosquitoes (lamkhute ko yatana) inside her net when she snored.
Yes, my cold Zamindar grandpa used my mum’s dysfunctional marriage to marry his second son to the daughter of Arun Shamsher an ADC to late King Mahendra. Then his third son married daughter of Brigadier Ravi Shamsher (close to the Royal family). His youngest son also got married to the daughter of Chudaraj Shamsher. However, he could not be successful to have his youngest daughter to a Rana (she had some developmental disorder). She was married to Inspector General of Police (much later) Hem Bahadur Singh. Aunty Indira was always so pious and she never missed all her pujas or workship rituals to all sorts of countless Hindu Gods and Goddesses. She was always up at the crowing of the first rooster and I always watched her workship the full moon.
My Aunty Indira passed away young after having a fit in her bath while rising early to do workship to the sun. She used to spent hours and hours making wicks to the butter lamps and that she did great deal for Gods and Goddesses. My uncle who married Ravi Shamsher’s daughter had a nick name ‘Mun’ or moon as he had a round face. My youngest mama or maternal uncle who married Chuda’s daughter was called Kiran (ray of light) and he died young in a car accident.
Here I reflected to show the nexus about my mother and her family and the pattern emerging of my mother’s tragedies. The most remarkable thing about my mum was that she really was a survivor and brought hope for me and my siblings to live. My father was a drunken Hitler, who was physically violent to my mum and us. This occurred as long as I have known him. However, my mum truly loved him and my father learnt love through her.
In fairness to my Rana grandma I have to digress a bit to the days, when Chandra Shamsher took power from Dev Shamsher through the helping hand of the British. Dev Shamsher was sent to exile in India and his eldest son was kept as a hostage by Chandra. This son was given plenty of wine and women by Chandra. He died young with several dozen sons and daughters. Among them was my grandpa, who was eldest and he was matched to marry my cold grandma. She was trained by the Chandra household to keep tab on our oppressed and poor family.
I can probably link this alcohol gene to this background of the Rana psychopathology in historic development. My mum’s tragedy was further aggravated to her life interacting with her union with my father.
My father’s name was Pashupati. This means the Lord of the animals, when Lord Shiva incarnated in this form. In reality my father was alcoholic psychotic in schizophrenic form. He was kind like Shiva in instant and mad like a fire storm in another instant. He was unpredictable. Those who knew him like in the Army would supply him with alcohol and get the reward instantly. My mum and us tried to block this supply and felt his wrath.
My father’s demand for alcohol made us poor materially. I remember Malla grandma sending us food and clothes. When this was observed by my Rana grandma that my mum was further chastised for bringing bad name.
My mum had to take a job as a schoolteacher in the Nepalese school named after late King Mahendra. She taught Nepalese and was very good. She was loved by all staff and students for her gentle and compassionate nature at Mahendra Adarsha Vidyashram then located at Thapathali.. She always hoped the good for others. She used to be visited by literary giants of Nepal and India, when my father was away in his Army posting. My father did not liked this and used to belt my mum for this artistic tendency she had. I will talk about my mum in her recitals in the radio and Indian Embassy poem readings and how my father went to get drunk, and beat other romantic poets in duet with my mum. This I describe the comedy and tragedy that my Malla grandpa created for her.
I learnt from late Janardhan Shama (son of Bal Krishna Shama) well known singer and writer for Radio Nepal about my mum more. He told me that late King Tribhuban had given her a first prize for winning a poem competition. It was a big valve radio that used to be listened by us all until late 1970s in our Thapathali home. Uncle Janardhan was also a keen and accomplished photographer. He in fact took that beautiful photograph of my mum and used the sepia tone. I am very thankful to him for that wonderful memory we all can share and Sangeeta has used this great snap shot when she was so young. She married my monster father at the age of 19 years, and conceived me at 20 years of age (another monster). She was younger by 10 years to my late father. Janardhan Shama was such a dandy and very powdered gentleman and my horrible father used to call him a “white elephant” out of jealousy. This occurred when Janardhan used to say “pen is mightier than the sword” and this was unbearable to an army man. My mum was always invited by the Indian cultural attaché Mr. Guljar for poetry recitals at various Nepalese and Indian important dates. My mother was also very versatile in Indian and Urdu poetry. My father just went with her to get free foreign alcoholic drinks and later used to beat my mum out of jealousy.
I remember my mum stopped going to such Indian Embassy poetry recitals after my father became a Brigadier General and was posted to Western Nepal. Here he became a chronic alcoholic and lost control of his self will. There was no one to control him and my mum was not there. I was with my dad and tried my best with other brave young soldiers and he was already beyond salvage.
My mum used to come and visit my father and me with my siblings and Nicki the dog in Nepalganj. My mum was happy to be here as it was her ancestral home ground. Her Malla grand father Chakra Bahadur Malla had established himself in Gharbari Tole in Nepalganj and went to become a one time big Zamindar of Bardia. In fact, the Malla belonged to Myagdi hills of mid western Nepal. The Malla’s went to Nepalganj to seek fortune much later; after Banke and Bardia was given by the British to Nepal as a reward of assisting them to quell the sepoy mutiny of Lucknow. My mum told me all the evil excesses of the Malla’s how they used to lavish themselves with private armies and visit Indian dancing Muslim girl’s of Lucknow. She was well liked by many Tharus (indegenious people of Bardia) and common folks. They remembered for her gentleness and empathy. She told me endless stories about her life as the eldest daughter of a wealthy Zamindar and I could write many volumes of books about it.
What was most important to me at this time in my life was that she told me that as her dowry she was given 200 bighas of land. I was told that her father owned over 4000 bighas of land. This was huge tract of land and covered many villages. However, in 1962 there was land reform program implemented in Bardia and as an example under the corrupt Panchayti Raj she and her father had lost all the land without any compensation. My father had a great fortune to be hosting tiger hunting for King Mahendra in Sukla Phanta in Kanchanpur. That year the King was very happy in his hunting and had asked my father what he wanted. My father could had asked for any amount of land and anywhere and he would had been granted. Instead, foolishly my father asked return of 25 bighas of land and compensation for 175 bighas that my mother was given as dowry. The great poet King granted my father’s wish. This fact would be another source of my mother’s suffering later. This would trigger greed among her brothers and father as the gift of the King had opened a legal can worm of precedent. My father was literally blackmailed by one of my evil maternal uncle to highjack the compensation money for all of themselves. I will never forgive them for what my mum and all of us suffered.
I need to add another tragedy in my mum’s life and that was in 1969 my favourite maternal uncle was killed in a car accident. He and other of our favourite relatives died in this accident in Kodari Raj Marg at 33 kilometers outside Kathmandu. The car had been probably hit by a landslide as they were driving late at night in a foggy situation and alcohol was also a significant contributory factor. My mum was very affected seeing her youngest brother die with such horrendous physical injuries. The car had rolled over 1500 feet below and gorge and some local hunters found the car after few days. My mum was truly missed him.
All the powers and Rana evil influence also had made her an alcoholic from that of a teetotaler. My mum became more alcoholic after the passing of my father. I also avoided all of my mum’s gatherings with her brothers and sisters as it was all related to alcohol. They used to fight like cat and dog in all of theirs’ gatherings and it did not bring me any enjoyment. I used to respect them and they all lost this love and respect I had about them. I always from 1972’s onwards wanted to start a new life for my kids far away from them. In many ways these are my happy and sad memories as the eldest grandson of the Mallas that made me forever migrate to Australia in 1978.
I am happy of my life here in Australia and my daughters are very beautiful and bright and doing very well. I will cherish my mother’s memory for what my cousin Sangeeta has done. I know Sangeeta found her husband Sunil Thapa (my younger brother’s friend) and my mum was instrumental in this. I truly am amazed at the loyalty and dues of Sangeeta (I used to call her Thusi) that she has paid my poor mum about her sad stories. In fact, I am celebrating the true story of my mum as a wake, and that she to me is truly an amazing Nepali Aama (mother Nepal/nature), who loved the beauty of nature of our beloved motherland. The paradox that her moonbeams did burn her may sound romantic in comedy and tragedy scene like the Greek soap opera genre. Then again, the influence of Greece has always been in India and Nepal.
One needs to account for her pen name as Kalpana or imagination indeed. She had fantastic and awesome imaginations of tragedy and knew the gruesome details that frightened me. Yes, in several occasions she attempted suicide and to protect her I tried to commit murder on my father as army weapons were near my grasp. I thank my predestined luck and no harm fell on her and our family like what occurred on late King Birendra’s family. I could vividly see what my mum used to say about powerful men having too much narcissism, being near too much alcohol and power and that destruction was almost inevitable. Well, the imagination of my dear poor mum is no more with us and she has done a creative destruction and returned to her creator like magic after a puff of peaceful smoke. Good on you mum, as I will always remember you when I shall see a whiff of white cloud like a smoke. I did not smoke you with fire burns in your funeral pyre as the eldest son as I was missing in this horrible action. I am truly a bad son that did not carry the tradition of your and mine ancestors. I know what you will say in your loving imaginations in that dark cloud with a silver lining! In next life mum, I will truly offer you moon cakes in the river and the moon lanterns will never burn your spirit in the transmigration of your soul.

Ranjit. You are full of shit. How dare you claim that you are my father, indeed you are nothing as an abusive psycho apparently as your father was. I know what you did to my mother, and she never said one word. Everyone else has told me what horror you bestowed on her.
And what sort of man are you to think you have ANY claim into the person I am today. You are a dead beat father who has not contributed financially or materialistically to my upbringing. You owe thousands of dollars in child-support none of which ever was paid.
You are a stranger to me. That is how I have wanted to keep it since I was 11 years old. I have knowledge of who I am am and what I want since then, and I dont want you or your shit in my life. You are a waste of space.
Finally stop writing letters to my mother, why do you do that? Go out and get a job!! She left you decades ago, you are hearing from me directly I DONT WANT ANYTHING EVER TO DO WITH YOU. So you no longer need to waste time, energy or thought into attempting to contact us.
AND the final straw was you contacting my workplace, its borderline stalking, and if you do something ever like this again. I will be taking the matter forward with legal action and police involvement hastily.
Forget us so that you stop your psychotic behavior in contacting us. We are estranged from you for many reasons. Stop telling people to google me, I do not identify myself as Nepalese, I AM AUSTRALIAN, and will not tolerate this absurdity.
You need not post your family history on the web, no body cares! LIKE I SAID STOP WASTING TIME ON THE NET AND GO GET A JOB, YOU BUM!

The abuse of a child that was poisoned by an uneducated Oz grandma called Pauline. Hey what a mess? duh!
This is directly from my dear Maya Rana.
Dear child, you know I contributed to you and your mother financially. Sheused it in the G. Whitlam (labor looney) mattered Family Court. Your mother fought me in the Family Court from 1982 till 1989. I own the access via trial.
What you did was not smart by going cold on me.
I gave my life to military service and I have my own karma (being sexually abused as a child in Jesuit Irish American school in Nepal) and that can be termed mitigating situation.
Well, if you are educated and do not understand ‘real suffering’ of ‘real people’ then apart from being a ‘walking human hanger’ I am afraid you are another Pauline = Paulette aka racist and evil Hanson of a ‘white Australia’ yester year policy.
Grow up child and know your dad is not a dead beat. He has own many battles and yet is going to win the mother of them all….Australia and the Oz Army. You keep your foul mouth open then you get not even a dime.
You are what you are good on ya ‘me moy matey ‘daugther.
I am suing your The News.com blog for defamation. Go on doing and I keep on counting and making money. I will go laughing all the way to the bank. ha ha ha and you will get nothing.
Where is your compassion you silly dill Oz cow?
Learn what is true and what is false! It seems you do not know about it as you have been brained washed by your silly Pauline!
How do you know if I have a job or not? I have now given all my possession to the unfortunates in Nepal and beyond to return to stardust.
I was born naked and die 6 feet down under naked. You are just a gene program between me and your whacky and negative mother. So shall you continue me dear.
I wish you all the best and watch.
I have my good friend Dr. Deepak Raj Pant, Chairman of Nepalese in Victoria to monitor my interest. You have known him and his daughter In Adelaide.
So long for now. Don’t me cranky that I do not give you any $$$$$ with your silly dinky oz oddity.
You appear as a ladette and my wish is that grow up as a suitable lady.
Love
Ranjit Rana
