Buddhism aspires to impart truthfulness, beauty, morality, kindness, contentment, and enlightenment in its believers. Buddhism's primary teachings may also provide viewpoints for political science courses. The main objective of this paper is to identify human values and social values in modern society as the essence of Buddhist teachings that are significant in Political Science Education and modern civilization. As a review paper, this paper contains a comprehensive introduction to Buddhism, its basis, teaching methods, and educational approaches. The paper extensively uses secondary data in its methodology. The data were analyzed using the content analysis method, and the findings were discussed as the themes that emerged. Then, a contemplative conclusion on Buddhist teaching and its pedagogical components is included. The major implications of Buddhism for Political Science Education have been indicated. The conclusion is then that Buddhism provides such constructs for education as personal freedom, intelligence, wisdom, moral, talent, non-violence and the secular persons, and that it can be a significant source of the curricular contents for Political Science Education.

This study aims to examine the impact of financial literacy on individual investors’ stock market participation (SMP). The data were collected through a survey-structured questionnaire. This paper has applied descriptive as well as causal research design to examine the effect of financial literacy on individual investors’ stock market participation (SMP) in Nepal. Investors’ SMP is a dependent variable and financial literacy-related variables; financial knowledge, behavior, and attitude are considered as explanatory variables. The results of this paper show that investors who are participating in the Nepalese stock market have a high level of basic financial knowledge on taxes, time value of money, money illusion, and inflation. In addition, descriptive results reveal that investors have advanced financial knowledge with positive financial behavior and attitudes which implies a higher level of financial literacy of stock investors. Moreover, correlation results indicate a positive association of financial literacy with individual investors’ SMP. Finally, the regression results of this study conclude financial literacy variables (financial knowledge, behavior, and attitude) all have a positive and significant impact on investors’ stock market participation in Nepal. The Nepalese government, the policy makers, and the regulatory bodies of the stock market should make effective and sound policies and programs to increase individual investors’ financial knowledge, positive behavior, and attitude which lead to attracting more individual investors for stock market participation in Nepal.

Job satisfaction refers to the positive emotions an employee gets from various aspects of their work. Work-related stress is the stress caused because of one's job. Work discrimination is the perception of being treated unfairly at work. Job satisfaction has the chance of being protective against work-related stress caused by discrimination at work. An online survey was developed in Google Forms to test the hypothesis that job satisfaction moderated the relationship between work discrimination and work stress among Nepalese employees. A snowball sample of 278 employees working in various professions was made in the first three months of 2022. Moderation analysis was done and the results showed that highland average but low levels of job satisfaction were protective against the work stress caused by discrimination at work. One-fourth of employees were found to have job satisfaction. Job satisfaction was significantly negatively associated with discrimination and stress at work. The conclusion is that the employers should try to increase job satisfaction of the employees in workplaces where there is more discrimination to protect employees against negative consequences of work-related stress. In the future, studies focused on specific occupations can be carried out to test the same hypothesis.

Many traditional societies still lack a strong social security systems for the elderly people. They generally view elderly people living with family as dependent on the family structure for social support, health and wellbeing. However, widows lack privileges and protection even when they live in traditional joint families, with at least one child and grandchildren. In reality, their resilience plays a significant role in their health and wellbeing as they age. To identify research gap about resilience among elderly widows, this study assessed the situation of 25 elderly widows aged 65 and above residing with their families in Kathmandu district , Nepal and identified key factors bringing about resilience in their day-to-day life. The resilience index comprised of four dimensions: psychological, physical health and fitness, food and nutrition and life support. The findings indicate that financial independence and education are two critical factors that best support resilience in elderly widows. This has far-reaching impacts on vulnerable groups like elderly people, especially elderly widows. The resilience index will be helpful for policy makers, stakeholders and other researchers to study the wellbeing and resilience among older widows.

The key aim of this article is to look into the current state of people's participation and immersion in local governance of Besishahar Municipality of Lamjung district. Outlined by purposive non-probability judgmental sampling techniques, qualitative data saturation procedure was adopted so that to make valid understanding of local governance and fifteen sample respondents were ascertained. Elected officials, Mayor, Vice Mayor, intellectuals, and government officer, Ward members, intellectuals, and public workers were among the 15 respondents. Primary data was accumulated mainly through formal and informal field and telephonic interviews. The study findings deduced that people's lively participation in many areas of government and development activities at the local level has been progressive and encouraging. The legislature plays a significant role in Municipality assembly lawmaking and the executive body's primary responsibility is to provide day-to-day service delivery to the people at the local level. However, there are numerous problems and possibilities. They lack the necessary resources and budget for social and economic development. Amid tribulations, the number of elected representatives has made altogether seventy-one local laws. Local governments have 22 rights under the Nepalese constitution of 2015. At this juncture, they can start building capability at the grassroots level. The local government can help them develop their leadership skills. Broadly, amidst shortcomings, prospects and challenges, this Municipality's innovative works in social, political, and economic development through infrastructural operations are commendable.
