आधुनिक नेपाली कथाको संसारमा विश्वेश्वरप्रसाद कोइराला (वि.सं.१९७१-२०३९) मनोवैज्ञानिक धाराको थालनी गर्ने महान्‌ कथाकार हुन्‌ । मानिसका चरित्र तथा मनोदशा प्रस्तुत गरिने कथा नै मनोवैज्ञानिक कथा हो । उनका प्रकाशित कथासङ्ग्रह 'दोषी चस्माः र “श्वेत भेरवी' हुन्‌ । प्रस्तुत 'शन्र' कथा उनले रचेको एक उतृष्ट मनोवैज्ञानिक कथा हो । क्षीण (झिनो) कथानकमा बुनिएको यो एक चरित्र प्रधान कथा हो । यहाँ कृष्ण रायको चरित्रबाट यस संसारमा सबैका शन्रु हुन सक्छन्‌ भन्ने तितो सत्य प्रस्तुत गरिएको छ


कथाका मूल पात्र कृष्ण राय इमानदार थिए । उनी निष्पक्ष बनेर झगडाको निसाफ गर्थे । एक बेलुका सुले बेलामा एक्कासि उनीमाथि लट्ठी प्रहार भयो लट्ठी हान्नेको पहिचान हुन सकेन । उनले एक एक गर्दै सबैलाई सम्झे । काम बिगार्दा गाली खाने नोकरलाई सम्झे । उनीबाट लज्जित बन्न पुगेको बलभद्रलाई सम्झे । नोकरी खोज्दै आएको युवक सम्झे । झगडामा उनले मध्यस्त गराएका व्यक्तिहरू सम्झे । यसरी नै आफ्नो पक्षमा निर्णय नपाएको गोविन्द पण्डितलाई सम्झे । मास्टरलाई पनि सम्झे । रेलको डब्बामा भएको झगडा पनि सम्झे हाटमा उनको धक्काबाट लडेको मानिस सम्झे । आफूले निकालेका नोकरहरू सम्झे । इखालु दाजुभाइ, आफ्नै धर्मपुत्रमाथि पनि शङ्काको डोरी बाटियो तथापि उनी कुनै निर्णयमा पुग्न सकेनन्‌ । अन्त्यमा पुलिस इन्स्पेक्टरले कसैसँग शङ्का छ कि भनी सोध्दा सबैको नाम एक एक गरी भने । यही अन्योलमै कथा पनि समाप्त हुन्छ।


यसरी कृष्ण रायका मनमा उत्पन्न आवेगलाई नै यस कथाले छ । यो पात्रको मनोविश्लेषणमा केन्द्रित चरित्र प्रधान कथा कथामा कृष्ण राय मूल पात्रका रूपमा उपस्थित भएका राय उमेरले ४५ कटेका छन्‌ । उनी सबैसँग मिल्ने स्वभावका उनी आफूलाई अजात शत्रु सम्झन्छन्‌ । धन, यश र कुराले सम्पन्न उनी असल मानिस हुन्‌ । उनी गाउँलेहरूको सहयोग गर्छन्‌ । झगडा परेमा मध्यस्थता गराउने र सबैलाई हुने फैसता गर्न सक्ने उनमा विशेष क्षमता पनि छ ।


उनी पहिले सबैलाई मित्र ठान्थे । आफूमाथि लट्ठी प्रहारपछि सबैलाई शन्रु देख थाल्छन्‌ । उनी मिलुन्जेल कसैमाथि शङ्का गर्दैनन्‌ । सानो घटना हुनासाथ सबैलाई शाङ्का गर्छन्‌ । यसरी यो एक मनोवैज्ञानिक कथा बनेको छ | यस कथामा आन्तरिक द्वन्द्व प्रबत छ । कृष्ण रायका मनमा उत्पन्न उतार चढाव नै आन्तरिक द्वन्द्व हो । बेलुका सुले बेलामा उनीमाथि लट्ठी प्रहार भएपछि भोलिपल्ट पुलिसलाई घटनाको रिपोर्ट लेखाउँदासम्मको समयलाई यस कथाले बोकेको छ कथामा सबैले मान्ने खालका व्यक्तिबाट भेञ्गगडा मिलाउने न्यायनिसाफ छिन्ने सामाजिक प्रचलनको समेत उल्लेख भएको छ ।


यस कथामा ग्रामीण सामाजिक परिवेश छ । यसमा आन्तरिक परिवेश निकै सशक्त बनेको छ । 'शन्र' कथाको शीर्षक पनि कथाको विषयवस्तुमा चिटिक्क मिलेको छ । कथामा आफ्नो कुनै शन्रु नै जन्मेको छैन भन्ने श्रममा कृष्ण राय थिए । आफूमाथि लट्ठी प्रहारपछि आफ्नो सम्पर्कका सबैलाई शन्रु ठान्न पुगे । हामीले न्याय निसाफ छिन्दा वा सम्झाउँदा पनि शन्रु बनाउन पुग्छौं । सहयोग गर्दा होस्‌ वा उपदेश दिँदा होस्‌; नजानिँदो तरिकाले शन्रुता बढाउँछौँ । कृष्ण रायले शङ्का गर्दा शन्नु बन्नाका कारणहरूको पनि एक एक गरेर चर्चा गरिएको छ यसरी कथाको शीर्षक यसको विषयवस्तु र मूलभावसँग सुहाएको छ ।


यसरी झिनो कथा भएर पनि कृष्ण रायको चरित्र मिहिन रूपमा प्रस्तुत गरिएको छ । मध्यस्थको भूमिकामा आफूलाई गर्व गर्ने कृष्ण राय लटठीको प्रहारपछि आफ्ना पनि बैरी भएको निष्कर्षमा पुगेका छन्‌ । यहाँ सरल र सहज भाषाशैलीमा ग्रामीण समाजको परिवेश छ । यस कथाले जति नै राम्रो काम गर्दा पनि कतै न कतै कोही न कोही शन्रु हन सक्छन्‌ भनेर देखाएको छ ।

उत्तर  :
In the world of modern Nepali stories, Bishweshwar Prasad Koirala (1971B.S. -2039 B.S.) is a great storyteller who started the psychological stream. A psychological story is a story that presents the character and mood of a person. His published collections of stories are 'Doshi Chasma' and 'Shwet Bhervi'. The presented 'Satru' story is a great psychological story written by him. It is a character-driven story woven into a weak plot. Here, through the character of Krishna Raya, the bitter truth is presented that everyone can be Satru in this world


The main character of the story, Krishna Raya, was honest. He used to judge the fights by being impartial. One evening while he was sleeping, he was suddenly hit with a stick. He remembered everyone one by one. He remembered the servant whom he scolded, when he messed up his work. He remembered Balabhadra who became ashamed of him. He remembered the young man who was looking for a job. He remembered the people he had mediated in fights. This is how he remembered Govinda Pandit who did not get a decision in his favor. He also remembered the master. He also remembered the fight in the train compartment and remembered the man who fell due to his push. He remembered the servants he had fired. Suspicions were cast on his brother, his own adopted son, but he could not reach a decision. Finally, when the police inspector asked if anyone was suspicious, he told everyone's name one by one. The story also ends in this confusion.


In this way, this story is based on the impulse generated in the mind of Krishna Raya. In this character-driven story focused on the psychoanalysis of this character, Krishna Raya, who appeared as the main character, is 45 years old. He has the nature to get along with everyone, and he considers himself an untouchable enemy. He is a good man endowed with wealth, fame and fortune. He helps the villagers. He also has a special ability to mediate in case of conflict and make a decision for everyone.


He used to consider everyone as his friend. He starts seeing everyone Satru after Someone hitting him with a stick. He does not suspect anyone until he meets him. As soon as a small incident happens, they suspect everyone. Thus it has become a psychological story There is an internal conflict in this story. The ups and downs in Krishna Raya's mind is an internal conflict. This story covers the time from when he was hit with a stick in the evening until he wrote a report of the incident to the police the next day. The story also mentions the social practice of wresting justice from people who are respected by everyone.


This story has a rural social environment. The internal environment has become very strong. The title of the story 'Satru' also matches the theme of the story. Krishna was of the opinion that no Satru was born in the story. After hitting him with a stick, he came to think of everyone he came in contact with as Satru. Even when we judge or remind, we end up making Satru. Be it by helping or giving sermons; Unknowingly, we increase shatru. The reasons why Krishna Raya became Shatru when he doubted have also been discussed one by one, thus the title of the story suits its theme and essence.


In this way, even though it is a small story, the character of Krishna Raya is presented in a perfect way. Krishna Rai, who is proud of his role as a mediator, has come to the conclusion that he is also an enemy after being hit with a stick. Here is the environment of rural society in simple and easy language style. This story shows that no matter how good a job you do, someone can become a shanru somewhere.
