    I don't agree with you guys.
    Please don't make differences between religions...
    And I think Buddhist is not a religion,it is a science.
    So..science is not belong to one leader...
    And your effort is like shooting the bush....
    Just think Nazi leaders tried to kill Jews...but it not worthy for do in name of Buddhism...

    dear isuru143, you have misunderstood. this is not about making diferences between religions (however, religions are different. arent they? what is important is believoing in ones own religion and respecting others' religions)

    budhism is/was never a science. it is even not a philosophy. it is true that there is a philosophy behind budhism. but it cannot be reduced to a philosophy.

    and there is nothing about religions here. i dont know what you are talking about.

    this is about the future of the nation.

    Tharinda..thanks for reply in friendly....I appreciate it lot...and i think you are buddhist and i am catholic...but i think Lord Buddha is a great scientist...and I think his all lectures(I don't know better word-sorry about that) are can be proven scientifically.

    For small example He told to Mithreeya Pennanda Kiyala Siyalu Thenatama...According to me...it because if we can reduce heart beat and homone glands we can make our cell work long time.We can reduce the lycosome Enzyme works.

    So I think it is a science and need to spread.So I think that science must spread and convert to better way that every person can understand.But our culture lies there like a barrier.

    For example.if we in colombo we have to be there in that way
    If you in UK u have to be there in that way,by respecting people and work with them...
    So that science must convert to better way that europe and other peoples can understand.Unless it stay here and die someday...

    Just think...I love buddhist and people of Sri Lanka..I like if they develop according to the changing world...

    Am I wrong?

    that is correct. that is about culture. not about religion. if you are in usa u must be asimilated to that culture. otherwise you wouold be alienated. and after getting so you cannot protest against americans saying they are not treating you well. likewise if one is living in sri lanka he must be asimilated to sri lankan culture.

    american culture is christian as it must be (not the religion i mean culture). that is why obama is giving his oath with the aid of a bible.

    likewise sri lankan culture is sinhala budhist (not religion again) the catholics in sri lanka must be apprecioated cos they have been assimilated to sri lankan culture. they are not behaving as portugeese catholics but sinhala budhist catholics. they are catholics in religion and sinhala budhit in culture.

    the tamils would have done it easily if not for some of their leaders.

    and i must emphasize. all the citizens have equal rights as citizens in sri lanka.

    but, there are some significancies. we use lion flag. there is a sinhala national anthem. and we say jayamangala gatha at independent day (i went to a catholic school. i never found a catholic opposing to such things. that speaks volumes for their understanding)....meaning the significant culture in sri lanka is sinhala budhist culture (it is not dominating on others. it is merely significant.)

    My Dearest Friend/Brother,

    Hay,if there is no religion thing,how can there be only Monks or Hamuduruwo.And I know exactly about Dr.Nalin.

    Hay we as sinhala people we have responsibility on this War.We need to take that responsibility on every person that die on behalf of the war...

    Think A minute...And you can stop another upcoming War...

    I don't love Sri Lanka...But I love every single man who lives in Sri Lanka..because without them...we have no Sri Lanka

    Dear Friend,

    and i must emphasize. all the citizens have equal rights as citizens in sri lanka.

    You mentioned above that every citizens have equal rights,but if tamil person can't be a president in Sri Lanka(if he has every qualities being a president),how every person have rights.



    You are right saying we need to convert according to Sri Lankan culture...but how can we predict our culture...Culture needs to be change...


    Guys!

    I don't need to take this talk forward...
    I have one thing to ask....
    don't make a way to another war....
    PLEASE...you may see I am pleading...yeah...I plead for tomorrow......
    Thanks!

    oh dear isuru,

    do you know what is dr nalins theme.

    let us beat tamil racism.

    and let a muralidaran be the president of sri lanka.

    i too dont like to talk about such things. but i got to do.

    what i meant was that tamils must and can be presidents of sri lanka but they must think as sri lankans rather than waving indian flags in cricket matches.

    i put a thread on obama kadirgamar and tna.

    you know, after mahinda, jeyraj would have been a great leader. but l.t.t.e kill those great leaders. and there remains only racist tamil leaders. they cannot be presidents not bcos they are tamil but bcos they are racists.

    and would obama be the president in usa if he think like an african , not like an american. after all he is a true american. he is an example to tamil leaders in tna. if they can behave like him, then there will be defenetly tamil presidents in sri lanka. for sure, we will raise our hands for that.

    i dont mine you are pleading or not. i too want to sleep now. its ok.

    sinhalas or catholics or burgers or tamils or muslims are not responsible for the war. the war was a result by the british empior. they treated the tamil educated in an asymetric way. and it is the tamil politicians who statred all these things. wadukoday convention was at 1951 (before 1956). it is true that some sinhalas did thugs. but it was not the main reason. however i cant eloborate on all these things. i may upload an audio of the lecture.

    about mixed cultures

    sinhala budhist culture is not budhist reliion. it is a name given considering the sinhala budhist influence in the culture. and it will and must be changing by and with tamils muslims...etc. it has a catholic part also. it was posible bcos catholics were ready to be in the culture. catholics have all their rights got in this culture. they dont find any wrong. then what is the problem?

    there are no mixed cutures but evolving cultures. thats the way.


    good luck for you too.

    Whatever you say...we all have our own thoughts...And I think I should shut up...And don't forget there are people from another cultures.


    And I like to know what you mention by Buddhist culture?
    What values are in that culture?
    What books are written for that culture?-how can a person know about that culture
    Is it practical culture?
    Is it make a problem to other peoples like (muslim or tamil)?
    Is that culture wide-spread?
