In
the name of Buddha?
While Muslims in Western Nations are made to feel
uncomfortable due to their apparent commonness with extremists using the name
of Islam, in Sri Lanka, the Buddhist Clergy seem to be specially targeting Muslims
to show their power. If Muslims did bring their brotherhood army – would they
be known as Terrorists – as happened with Tamils of Sri Lanka whose militants
were resourced by the Indian Government especially after the 1983 pogrom in Colombo
to which the then Government turned a blind eye. As per independent
observations, it was after this pogrom that the ordinary Tamil youth actively
joined militant groups. Militants in many ways became the pawns through which
the Indian Government showed its powers over Sri Lankan Government. Majority Tamils of Sri Lanka do not consider
the militants to be Terrorists. Likewise, majority Buddhists of Sri Lanka would
not consider their soldiers to be war criminals. Lord Buddha is not likely to
consider Tamil militants to be Terrorists nor Sinhalese soldiers to be War
Criminals. I believe that each one of us who feels Sri Lankan can make a difference – to prevent another war in Sri
Lanka. Living in or close to Truth keeps our mind in good order. Sharing our
Truth helps harness Natural powers. Those so helped are our Natural Relatives.
As per Daily Mirror report:
[The Organization of Islamic Cooperation
(OIC) the collective voice of the Muslim world stressed the its full solidarity
with and support for the Muslim community of Sri Lanka against the apparent
rising trend of violence instigated by extremists, which is spreading fear and
mistrust among the population. The OIC Secretary General Dr. Yousef
Al-Othaimeen stressed his displeasure over the recent attacks taken place at
the Muslim community in Sri Lanka at OIC official website. “The reports of
attacks on homes, businesses and mosques are of great concern and deeply
regrettable,” it said. ]: http://www.dailymirror.lk/article/OIC-Expresses-Solidarity-with-Muslims-in-Sri-Lanka-130370.html#sthash.rTfsKg0U.dpuf]
It’s similar to India’s stand in terms of the
attacks against Tamils. But eventually, the relationship got out of control and
resulted in militants taking no one as their supervisor. The Sri Lankan
Government as per its Constitution has taken on Lord Buddha as their
supervisor. Laws when practiced bring our minds together. One can therefore
accept that if majority Sri Lankans accepted Lord Buddha as their leader /
supervisor – they would think alike and therefore would have prevented war
through Buddhist power alone. But what happens if their leader/supervisor is
not the real Lord Buddha but some other personality – for example the Vedda
Leader? Likewise the Tamil militants and those Tamils who do not ‘see’ any
fault in them? Ravana – the villain of
Ramayanam was a Hindu. Like the Sinhala
Only and Tamil Only leaders – King Ravana also took no leadership from higher
personalities. Ravana was a Shiva devotee but that was limited largely to getting
boons (the parallel of UN Benefits to
Sri Lankan Government) and not to merge with Divine Power.
Given that ‘time based’ seniority seems to influence
the average person in determining ‘ownership’ by possession / occupation – one needs
to ask as to whether a democratic constitution needs to address this issue. The Muslim leader is reported to have stated
in the case of Sri Lanka:
[ that the
Muslim community in Sri Lanka has a long standing presence in the country and a
tradition of living in peace and harmony with their compatriots and
contributing to the cultural and economic life of the country as a whole. -]
Traditional Values / Heritage are the less visible powers of minorities. There is
Matter at the bottom and there is Energy at the top. Once our contributions
become Energy – they can be accessed only through Belief. Mother’s power is
intuitive due to this Nuclear Energy. It was this Nuclear Energy that
manifested in the form of Equal Opposition position in Sri Lankan parliament –
for Tamils. That did not happen due to
gun power. It happened due to Tamil Administrators continuing to consider Sri Lanka as their ‘home’
despite the challenges posed in the name of Majority Rule which effectively is ‘animal
rule’. Names of ancestors were invoked by both sides – which confirmed
dependence in the past. The past to be of common value, has to be an invisible
power – motivating from within. When activated to ‘show’ now – it confirms
dependence. Likewise cultural powers of those who are currently not visible to
us – like Indian leader Madam Indira Ghandi was to the Tamil militants and
Muslim Political leaders in other countries could be to those in countries
where Muslims are threatened. One who
believes in Global powers will receive the support during her/his time of need.
Minorities seeking to realize Independence should never be directly influenced
by powerful foreign leaders of their religion/culture. Once we take leadership as
per those orders – which happened without or participation - we lose the power
of Democracy. That was how militants dictated to elected leaders and to the
very citizens who were victims of majority power in the hands of lower level
thinkers.
To prevent another internal war in Sri Lanka, all
Sri Lankans must commit themselves to preventing war based on old powers like
the name of Buddha and/or majority power used against higher intellectual and
spiritual powers.
Ancestors whose name only is used to give form to
current authority also become part of majority power, in the mind of such user.
The two would not merge except at point zero – as in X and Y axes of the graph.
This causes chaos and eventually disorder of the mind of the authority that
abused the power. If we do all within our official power and submitted the rest
to God – that would be the most likely outcome and true investors in Peace and
Harmony would make the karmic connection.
