Our Sri Lankan Heritage
This morning,
here in Melbourne, while sharing Sri Lankan breakfast with our granddaughter
who is in the middle of her University Entrance exams – that the food was
Energy food. The Energy is ‘Motivational
Energy’ - Ichcha Shakthi personified as
Valli – Consort of Lord Muruga .
During this
Constitutional crisis in Sri Lanka I have been praying strongly to Lord Muruga
at Kathirgamam – not too far from Mr Rajapaksa’s home area. To the extent I
forewent pleasures to educate myself and others – they became natural
structures through which my thoughts are processed. To the extent I forego status as per that
natural structure for the Common good – it becomes my Energy. In Hindu
literature we read about the ability of holy men to leave their bodies and
enter into the bodies of others. My
interpretation of this is that the minds merge as per the common form we give
our Truth. That is how all of us have the ability to truly empower the leaders
who hold leading positions. Elected leaders have the DUTY to be open to such
mergers.
Mr Sirisena
was elected as President by the marginal power that we Tamils hold in Sri
Lanka. That was a vote against Mr Rajapaksa who is held as the leader
responsible for civilian deaths during the 2009 war. It is the duty of every
Tamil to oppose such a leader who has thus far failed to demonstrate remorse to
negate the negative karma earned by Mr Rajapaksa through unlawful actions
during the war and subsequently by celebrating ‘war-victory’ by claiming that
those eliminated were Terrorists. Excessive use of such terminology against
one’s citizens returns to ‘sender’. As per my understanding, this is also Lord
Buddha’s message to his true followers.
Mr Mahinda
Rajapaksa shifted to Kurunegela District – away from Lord Muruga’s Residence of
Kathirgamam. That was how god disposed of those who polluted sacred land. China
may possess Hambantota but India through its Tamil Hindu ancestors who sang the
praise of Kathirgamam is part of the ruling spirit of Southern Sri Lanka which
includes Hambantota. Heritage value is Energy based. Energy is eternal.
According to the
president’s website report regarding the
president’s meeting with the UN representative:
‘During
this meeting, the President apprised the UN representative regarding the
prevailing political situation in Sri Lanka, and assured her that the
government has taken all the steps in accordance with the constitution of the
country.’
Mr Sirisena as
per published information is not an expert in law. The best qualified to
intellectually interpret the constitution are the architects of that
constitution and that too as per their belief in law. An elected President has
the DUTY to say – he believes that his actions were within the provisions of
the constitution. This is the flaw I registered in the decision by Dr Laksiri
Fernando who is an academic in Political Science and not in law; but he
certified that Mr Rajapaksa’s appointment was Constitutional! He had the duty to state that it was his
belief. When we had the Dual Citizenship issue here in Australian Parliament –
the Judiciary’s decision was sought for that reason. Obviously, Dr Laksiri
Fernando was still living as per Sri Lankan political mindset.
Elected
representatives have the duty to express as per their belief and not as per the
law which majority citizens are not likely to understand in such issues. If
indeed Mr Sirisena believes that his actions are within the provisions of the
constitution – then it is my belief that under his leadership there will be
disorder in the nation and more importantly minorities would lose any hope of
solution through integration. One would need to assimilate or resign to their
own local corners – as happened with Tamils. This would obviously invoke active
minds within those communities – to join forces with external players –
including Indians in the case of Tamils and Pakistan Middle East in the case of
Muslims. These are the natural collusions that are likely to happen in return
for the Separation Mandate that Mr Sirisena and Mr Rajapaksa are following. At
their age all this would go towards a negative heritage for those who fail to
oppose them – starting with their immediate families.
