If you look at his life, you can see that he has gone through many ups and downs.If you go through his biographies you feel very excited to know different turnings in his life.He was thrown to a Ganesh Mandir at Chetrapati just after his birth.This generous Newar family adopted him.Though he is well known as Vikashananda, his name is Vikashman Shrestha in his citizenship certificate.Earlier his name was Ekdantaman which is one of the name of Lord Ganesh. He was a prize winning artist of Nepal when he was at the late teenage.He also got an oppurtunity to represent Nepal in the USSR.His experience in the USSR has come in his book "Lenin ko darsan dekhi Lena ko aalingan samma"(i.e.Visiting Lenin's birthplace to falling in the arms of Lena)
