    I didnt jump in to introduce you in to this thread because I did that in few other threads previously, I believe you have the patience & what it takes to explain Buddhism to some one who is eager to learn. The problem I have (Which made me make my initial comment), is I have seen lot of threads cultivating & spreading hatred in the name of Buddhism by some people who purports to be practicing the best Budhism. As a person, who lived most of my life among Budhists, I hate to see these kind of threads, which I believe an insult to Buddha & his teachings. (I know that I lack the patience & the understanding of "Atalo Dhahama", hence my intolerance).

    Also, there are lots of new words people tend to use without having any understanding of the meaning, like hethupalawadaya, patichchasamuppadaya, etc. In my view, Buddhism in Sri Lanka has become more of a fashion or a jewllary than a way of life. Anyway, if you can make some difference here I'm with you Bro.

    Pinwath mithura,

    Your observation is True; I too have seen that...
    Buddhism has not been practiced properly by most of us...

    Many Buddhists do not make use of Dhamma; and they do not know how & why Buddhism disappears from the face of the earth... That's probably why we see unacceptable (i.e. w.r.t. Dhamma) reactions from the Buddhists...

    The solution is getting them to Dhamma... At the moment we can see a trend of Sri Lankan youths practicing Dhamma with dedication...

    At the same time looking down upon others reflects bad on ourselves... (e.g. it will not bring forth peace & happiness to us..)

    We'll hopefully see a difference in the coming years... :)
    Hopefully we'll see a difference in EK...

    Thanks for your comments... :)

    Theruwan saranai!

    Bohoma parissamen karanna one vadak:)
    Buddhism and science tharamak ekata yanava thama namuth there difeers too
    HAriyata rail pili dekak vage ekalangin giyata ekathuvenne nam na:)


    .But the wonderful part is that Lord Buddha has said it before 2500 ..................Dhamma that Lord Buddha uttered:rolleyes:

    YEs nanga 4 sure namuth api hithanna one thava paththak thiyenava
    Lord buddha vadala samahara deval eta kalin anek agamavala thibichcha (jaina,hindu) so mehema vennath puluvan

    Buduhamuduruvonta kalin smaharavita purana pandivaru me gana kivva namuth popular une na namuth buduhamuduruvo popular una nisa e kathavama buduhamuduruvo deshana karata passe eka buduhamuduruvonge prakashayak vidiyata popular una vennath puluvan
    so ther's a doubt:)
