So, is it your position that there was some 'haskam' in this instance?

no..of course no..

if i say "haskam" that mean I have already come to a conclusion. then I don't need to reply to this thread.However, I am not saying that there is "haskam" behind this.

but this phenomenon is confusing.:confused:

of course you can.

1) buddha statues are reinforced with iron rods
2) Statues have curved surface areas.

I am happy to hear of your idea.

But also re-think about your statement but this phenomenon is confusing.

There is nothing, absolutely nothing, confusing about it. :no:

Are you sure that the buildings were also reinforced with steel? Please think again about it.

Normally, walls of buildings are not reinforced with steel.

Oh.Thanks. Yes. Such photos are relevant to the topic.

No. You don't need to convince me. I am already convinced. :cool:

We all have respect and regard for Buddha statues. But statues don't perform haskam. That is my conviction.

still this explanation is not gud enough 4 me. keep explaining senator ayya

OK. In post No. 65, you inquired about buildings. My reply was in post No. 67.

In civil engineering, the word 'reinforcement' is used in a given sense/meaning. In concrete structures like slabs of housing buildings, bridges, etc. iron or steel bars/rods are used inside the concrete to make it strong. We call it reinforcement.

In walls of our houses, no iron bars are used like that. So, we say, our walls are not reinforced.

Buddha statues are mostly made of concrete. The concrete is reinforced. But the walls of the Budugeya is not reinforced. Therefore, Buddha statue is much stronger than those walls. Then you can know why the Buddha statue is not damaged while the Budugeya is destroyed by the tsunami.

Please tell me if you need further explanations.

Another question, i saw the vedio footages of Tsunami in galle, There the Budhu ge , or even the glass window of da Budhu ge were not damaged. In that vedio i saw a bus hit the budhuge. But no damage 2 it. how can that happen?

    anna arahe nathi miracle mavanna hadanava......mehe buddhistslama ekathuwela miracle ekak thibboth eekath maranna hadanava.....:nerd: (A clear difference:))
    dear senator,,,i don't mind whether this is a miracle or not because buddhism is not based upon miracles(even though buddha had done lot of miracles,he told his followers that buddhism is not about miracles) and buddhists don't need miracles to keep his/her "sheelaya" going,,because they are not believers and they are not keeping faith upon anybody but only upon themselves......

    BUT,,i have seen a similar incident as which smallvilleclerk50 described above,,,that is in "aarugam bay".....oya LTTE prashna thibba kaaleth mama oya thanata gihilla thiyenava.....there's a navy camp there...othana bridge ekath ekkama budu pilimayak thiyenava veeduru valin issaraha vata karala...navy camp eka kandak uda thiyenne..eeka budu pilimeta vada godak usin thiyenne......sunami aava,,,ara kanda uda thibba navy camp ekatath vathura avilla eekata alaabahaani vuna,,,budu pilimeth ekkama thibunu bridge eka sampuurnayenma venaasa wela giya....................eeth budu pilime,,,,,,,,,,,,budu pilime veeduruwa pitinma ehemmama thibba.......eeke athulata eka vali katayak vath gihilla thibbe naha.......oya paththe muslim minissu innava....meeka dakapu eka muslim minihek ee budu pilimeta gihilla vandala.......

    onna ookai aththa kathaawa....mama eeka gana hondata danna nisai mehema kivve.....

    mata kiyanna oone naha eeka haaskamakda nadda kiyala......eeth mama ethana situation eka danna kenek hatiyata ehema deyak vuna eka pudumai....
    eevunaata mama hithanne kavuruwath oya miracles kiyana deeval valata oonaawata vada passen gihilla eevalata alenna narakai....anith eka,,mama kavadaavath oya miracles kiyana eeva "sarva baladaarii deviyan vahanse" visin karanava kiyala vishwasa karanneth naha....because then he will not send the sunami in the first place....only one thing i believe in,,,that's "dharmayehi hasirennaa dharmaya visinma aarakshaa karai".....eeka kavadath ehemmamai..........

    සුරාජ් කියන දේ ඇත්ත. අපි හාස්කම්, ශ්‍රද්ධාව පස්සේ යන්නේ නැතුව, අවබෝධය, බුද්ධිය පෙර‍ටු කරගෙන
    ආගම/දර්ශනයට අනුව ජීවත් වෙනවා නම් හොදයි
