Dear Marie: I extend my heartfelt sympathy on the lose of Tuddie. I will always remember how Tuddie was so good t I myself, Verna and George and we loved.

The Bodu Bala Sena (racist Sinhalese force) is headquartered, under the protection of a powerful monk, in the Sri Sambuddha Jayanthi building at Thumulla Junction. While they go around threatening violence and harm to Muslims and other minorities in a very un-Buddhist way, no one has coherently protested against them. The Group Buddhist Questioning Bodu Bala Sena is organizing a candlit vigil against their hate speech and corruption of the dhamma this Friday at 7 PM. They’ll gather at the Sri Sambuddha Jayanthi Mawatha building near Thumulla Junction. A lot of people complain or write petitions against this rising hate in the country, but it’s important to have physical events like this.

No matter how many online petitions there are, if we want really change we have to show that this many flesh and blood humans do not agree with a Buddhism that attacks people and threatens violence against them. It’s important to show each other that this is not Buddhism and it’s not Sri Lanka. I hope to see you there. You can get more info on or via their. The basic info is that it’s at 7 PM and if you care about what’s happening you should show up. Bodu Balu Sena is a Buddhist Extremist group sponsored by the government. It is the general belief of everyone irrespective of their race or religion.

The Machan Gnanasara’s thuggery against police officers are posted on the YouTube. He is the one who is leading this BBS. Isn’t it disgrace for the entire Buddhist Clergies.

The Muslims never get provoked by this BBS statements. Their expectation is to provoke the Muslims and to create another chaos in this blessed land. But instead of provocation the Muslims pray the Almighty to bless everyone with peace. However I am personally thankful to the BBS for making the entire Muslims of Sri Lanka to know what is Halal. Now the Muslims are more concerned than ever before about their consumables. The existence of the BBS on balance is essentially a good thing. It makes Muslims more aware of Halaal and the rest of us more aware of how to avoid halaal if we so wish.

Thanks to the BBS I learnt that the ACJU required a certain number of muslims to be employed in a company before issuing certificates. That seemed unfair and haram to me.

So now I avoid Halaal. From the failed vigil Friday, I learnt that many NGO and minority religion funded groups vie for power with the BBS in this little land. For example it is well known that the Buddhists Against BBS group on facebook censors comments and bans people posting comments not to their ideology. That is not the buddhist way surely. Censorship is not a buddhist doctrine. So they are in many ways similar to the BBS as they too have an undisclosed agenda and are obviously directly or indirectly connected to and funded by muslim organisations.

Dimi, meacham – well said. Well said indeed. These guys like kp, dinuka and all the above extremists can in reality are extremists and anti- Sinhala Tamil in reality.

There own hearts know that. Wen you are living in a country where the culture is created by a FULL Majority Unique ethnic group, and you are the minirity and iu can jever change it- EVER. This happens. Hatred happens.

You can scheme behind AC rooms at NGOs and whatnot, you can use social media and blogs. But the reality is whatever the situation is there is a reason why Muslims were permitted by Sinhalese kings in the early days to stay in Sri Lnka. Mind you according to AJU even they were Permitted to stay, marry Sinhala women and live in harmony and the reason they lived in harmony all these years is because the Peace loving nature of Sinhalese People. You cannot deny that. Even when the LTTE issue happened, we know that Tamil people has issues but the LTTE are not innocent and were extreme terrorists.
