MAHINDA SPEAKING THROUGH GOTABAYA
The most troubling
question in the caring Sri Lankan Tamil mind is ‘How did we end up producing
suicide bombers?’ The lead came from the current President of Sri Lanka under
whose leadership the following was issued:
We watched the clip that
recorded this ‘swearing in’ ceremony at Jaffna Court. After the preliminaries which
were pleasant looking – came the manifestation of Truth. The lady read out from
the circular – the oath and the others including judges repeated. I was shocked
when I heard the phrase ‘do hereby swear / affirm’ was repeated by the Court staff and Judges . Mr
Arun Gopi Ratnam - the author of the Colombo Telegraph article ‘Public
Administration Circular 38/2019:
Stamping
Us Into One Race Of Sri Lankans highlighted the following variation between the
Languages:
[The Oath: In English:
One country, one nation under one flag;
In Tamil: One country, one race under the shadow of one flag]
In Tamil: One country, one race under the shadow of one flag]
But to me it was disrespectful of the law when the words were
read out parrot-like by the judicial leaders in Jaffna. One cannot swear AND
affirm at the same time. The slash stands for ‘/’ OR. Later in the day my
husband spoke to the Mallakam Court Registrar who kept saying that he could
draw the money through Court Process. But he avoided the question whether the
Certificate of Heirship had been issued ? That was the stated purpose of the Application
by our Family Opposition. But the
Registrar just did not connect to the purpose but read the withdrawal of the
money as the purpose. One of the Judges at the above ceremony dismissed our
Appeal in relation to the Mallakam Court’s decision – which as per the
Application was approval of Issuance of Certificates of Heirship on Equal Basis to brothers and
sisters of the diseased.
Knowing the level of comprehension of juniors / internal customers
is essential to carry the stated purpose from
beginning to end. At that level – all religious books out to be available to
those who swear and the Code of Court Administration ought to have been made
available to those who Affirm. The higher minds would not need the visible book
– but take the oath as per its existing form in their conscious mind.
My commitment to my ancestors
from whom I inherited the mind of law led me to the parallel manifestation in
Parliament yesterday – about which I learnt through the Daily Mirror article ‘I stand for the
Kurahan Satakaya philosophy: Prez’
I do not know what Kurahan Satakaya is. Kurakkan
in Tamils is Ragi Flour which is considered healthy by Jaffna Tamils. The only
time my parents made Kurakkan Puttu (pasta) was during the festival at our
family temple in Vaddukoddai. So I took it as the parallel of Vaddukoddai
Resolution. The President is reported to have declared as follows:
[“Even though I do
not wear this shawl, I stand for the same profound philosophy of constant
dedication to the poor that is symbolized by the maroon shawl,” he said in his
policy statement in Parliament yesterday. “From the first day the honourable
D.M. Rajapaksa, known as the Lion of Ruhuna, appeared in the State Council, he wore
a maroon shawl. What he symbolized through this maroon shawl were the millet
farmers of Giruvapaththuwa. Following D. M. Rajapaksa, my father D.A. Rajapaksa
and each member of the Rajapaksa family who was elected to Parliament wore the
maroon shawl,” he said. “It is this same philosophy that is embodied in the
Policy Statement I presented during my presidential election campaign. I served
this nation as an Army Officer for twenty years and as Secretary of Defence for
another ten years. Even though I was not actively engaged in politics, I have
experienced what service to the people is from an early age.” ]
Mr
Mahinda Rajapaksa does wear the shawl . In his article ‘In search of
the kurahan saatakaya’ published in December 2005 – soon after Mr
Mahinda Rajapaksa became President – Mr Malinda Seneviratne wrote as follows:
[What
this kurahan saatakaya is,
what it means and where it is found, are of course open to all kinds of
readings as per the political predilections of the given reader, but an
exploratory comment would not be out of place, I believe.
The kurahan saatakaya is and was essentially defined by what it is not,
namely the tie-coat world as one would put it in “Sinhala”. It was the
perfect “other” to everything represented by the (adopted) children of the
colonial project, ]
As per the above Mr Gotabaya Rajapaksa is NOT kurahan saatakaya by
sight but by words only. Strangely that is the Truth. The way I read it - Mr
Gotabaya Rajapaksa is a temporary occupier of the seat of President for his
nephew Namal Rajapaksa.
The lack
of commitment to Colombo Telegraph article of 12 November, headed ‘New
Gaffes As Ali Sabry And Co Scramble To Do
Damage Control On Gota’s Citizenship Issues
The above article highlighted as to how Mr Gotabaya
Rajapaksa’s legal representative manifested Affidavits allegedly signed by Mr Gotabaya Rajapaksa – one without his
signature but with the attesting officer’s signature and the other with both
signatures.
To my mind the miracle is that this kept flashing in my alert box when I was reading the article
regarding Jaffna Court Swearing in. The deeper the mind the closer we are to the
Nuclear Energy of that system. Then that system leads us.
Military following leads to blind following of the
Master’s Voice. This kind of following as confirmed by Jaffna Court staff whose
leaders are strongly led by LTTE leader who trained suicide bombers. Sinhalese and Tamils who use
ancestral powers without belief copy each other. Tamils were trained by Indians
to whom self-immolation is a regular way when their mind is depressed.
Being conscious of the Opposition prevents such
dropping of mind to the bottom where one hears only the master’s voice.
