Local and foreign devotees helped to startup the center. There were many who helped, among them Mr. Hiroko son from Japan and Mr. Lubos from Czech Republic are prominent.Ven.Gampaha Pemasiri Thera is the living Sri Lankan successor of the great Mahasi Sayadow. In the year 1956 the most venerable Mahasi Sayadow visited Sri Lanka in order to celebrate 2500 years of Buddhist’s dispensation. During the visit he started to teach Vipassana meditation on the land where now Sumathipala Nahimi Senasun Arana situated.Starting from 1956 venerable Mahasi Sayadow taught meditation on this land as well as U Sujatha(also from Myanmar). Because of that this land is considered to be blessed by those great meditation masters. After few years of teaching meditation here the meditation center was moved to another end of the land. After that point it was named as Siyana international Vipassana meditation center Kanduboda.<a href="https://www.sumathiarana.com//about.html" target="_blank">https://www.sumathiarana.com//about.html</a></blockquote>
