These are three faces of the same supreme being, the Brahman.]<BR/><BR/>You are absolutely correct. I needed one name because of comment space restrictions, and I went with Vishnu. In retrospect, Brahma would have been more appropriate, I think.<BR/><BR/>You are right! Many Indians loved it and supported me (I am posting under the handle of Sinha since no posts are accepted any more from Ananda-USA because I posted too many times in one news article!) and the gist of my message in their comments!<BR/><BR/>When you are in Rome, you have to do as the Romans do. So, rather than try to convince them of the justice of our cause with Buddha's teachings, I sometimes try to use Hindu teachings and gods...it relates to them better.Ananda-USAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13271938845222503043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-3708889851573478972009-01-01T04:06:00.000+05:302009-01-01T04:06:00.000+05:30ReallyCold said...[Ananda-USA"Yes, by the grace of...ReallyCold said...<BR/><BR/>[Ananda-USA<BR/><BR/>"Yes, by the grace of the Buddha, the Dhamma, and the Sangha."<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, this grace has left Sri Lanka and most Sri Lankan temples a long time ago.<BR/><BR/>This is an ugly forum where we talk the war mostly with the rage and hate.<BR/><BR/>Buddhism has no place here.<BR/><BR/>Modern Sri Lankans have abused Buddhism much more than their counterparts in the history.<BR/><BR/>There are few bright spots and they are transparent to the world.]<BR/><BR/>I disagree. This war was basically thrust upon us. After trying to avoid the inevitable for 30 years, we are finally going about it the correct way, with the will, determination and the ferocity required to win it. <BR/><BR/>However, as we proceed, we must keep in mind what we are fighting for; it is to preserve the unity of the country; a country largely guided by the tenets of the Buddha sasana; and to deliver the fruits of peaceful co-existence to our people as soon as possible. <BR/><BR/>Keeping Buddhist teachings in mind, will sustain our troops on the battle front, and us here, emotionally, and will prevent excesses normally associated with a brutal war such as this. It is a difficult thing to kill the enemy at one moment, and help heal them the next when they are captured. Buddhism helps people maintain that balance and self-control. Ultimately, both our troops and the defeated enemy must join civilian society. They will be able to do so without becoming violent social misfits only if they can maintain a measure of rational humanity. Buddhism (and other compassionate religions)will help them do that. If society as a whole does not provide these fighters on both sides with that emotional support, we will create a monster with whom the rest of the population will find difficult to live with in the future. Ultimately, religion is what prevents us from descending into barbarism, even as we fight a brutal war of survival.<BR/><BR/>It is in this context that I worry about whether the defeated Tiger cadre, who have known no parental love in their childhood, and have only imbibed hate and violence from the LTTE as they grew up, can ever be successfully rehabilitated to become productive members of society. They will need a lot of close supervision, lots of psychological assistance, lots of contact with monks and priests, well meaning mentors, adoptive parents if they have none of their own, education for those who did not go to school, and assistance in training for meaningful employment, in the future. THis is essential not only from a humanitarian standpoint, but also from the point of view of self preservation of the society at large. <BR/><BR/>The Sinhala soldier is emotionally better off, having the support of his community. I hope their needs are not forgotten when they war ends. I can think of no one better suited to participate in helping in the rehabilitation of the captured Tiger cadre, than our own Sinhala soldiers, because they have shared the kinship of the horrors of this war.<BR/><BR/>Indeed, there are aspects of monks, priests, laymen and temples that are quite contrary to the essence of the religion; that is something we must work on to correct. However, that is no reason to issue a blanket broad-brush condemnation of religious institutions as a whole. Many times in Sri Lanka's history, the Buddha Sasana has been cleansed by the reigning monarch. In christianity, emperor Constantine the Great, did the same, defrocking abusive priests, and enforcing peace between different segments of a warring clergy. Every religion has had corruption and schisms, and great healers, both royal and common, have emerged to heal the difference and refocus the clergy on the reasons that justify their existence.Ananda-USAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13271938845222503043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-73997207312726246382008-12-31T22:49:00.000+05:302008-12-31T22:49:00.000+05:30Sinhalaya ModayaKevum Kanda yodayaTa tan tang, ta ...Sinhalaya Modaya<BR/>Kevum Kanda yodaya<BR/><BR/>Ta tan tang, ta tan tang...<BR/><BR/>Handiye Paranthan<BR/>mun ivva konda kevum<BR/><BR/>Ta tan tang, ta tan tang...Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08118064410234882605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-27499329200037430532008-12-31T21:57:00.000+05:302008-12-31T21:57:00.000+05:30[The imminent capture of Paranthan by New Year day...[The imminent capture of Paranthan by New Year day and possible capture of Kilinochchi by Thai Pongal day (Jan 14th) is likely to boost the image of the Government in forthcoming Provincial elections]<BR/><BR/>he he he... excellent move by the MR led GOSL, which should get the bonus for taking on the LTTE pigs instead of `talking` to them.<BR/><BR/>Further, I would prefer to see the final victory is so planned.. so that it would arrive on the eve of next general election....
