SOFA, QUAD & G7

The US is not keen to pursue a new iteration of the Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) with Sri Lanka at present, visiting US Bureau of South and Central Asian Affairs Deputy Assistant Secretary (DAS) Afreen Akhter told The Sunday Morning last week.  Security partnering: US not pursuing SOFA with SL at present  - The Morning

 

Last week the American President failed to turn up for the QUAD meeting in Australia. This was reported as follows by CNBC under the heading ‘Australia cancels Quad meeting in Sydney after Biden postponement’. But the same President attended the G7 summit in Hiroshima.

Today, I was invited to comment on ‘How Will Our Religions Handle the Discovery of Alien Life?

 

My response began as  follows:

 

I believe that all beliefs, including through science and secular law are religions. As the author has highlighted, ‘if you marry the Spirit of your own generation you will be a widow in the next’ This is time based. If place based this would read as ‘if you marry the Spirit of your place, you will be a widow in in other places.’  

SOFA was a local agreement. If the parties got married under that agreement, they would not have global partners.

 

I continued to explain my logic as follows:

Buddhist Sri Lankans and Hindu Indians are examples of this. This can happen due to realising that we are Universal souls or due to recognising only through the physical – such as Tamil Eelam & Sinhala only. One in the relative world has no authority to mark one in another world right or wrong. That is the law of Sovereignty as well as the base of relativity.

 

You respond to the question ‘Is Earth a privileged place? Do we have an obligation to care for beings on other planets?’ as follows:

 

(They are trying to care for us morons bent on destroying our planet!).

 

If  ET is from another form parallel to Earth they have no jurisdiction to take care of us. They are like a Buddhist government that is unable take care of other religions. Similarly USA has no jurisdiction over Sri Lanka in local issues.

 

If ET is considered Universal  Energy, yes it certainly has authority to take care of us, including through Disciplinary actions.  The vertical form of this Universal power is known as ancestral power/heritage. Religious form is such vertical form. 

 

The USA had such global power through UN to take action against LTTE. On its own it had no such power to help or to punish.  In terms of Tamil Eelam – even if we see it through eyes of the traditional owners of Tamil homeland, unless we believe we are traditional, we had no jurisdiction over areas developed through funds earned in multicultural areas such as Colombo and Kandy. Likewise, Sinhalese. One version of ‘Chief Seattle Speech’ presents this beautifully as follows:

 

‘Your dead cease to love you and the land of their nativity as soon as they pass the portals of the tomb and wander away beyond the stars. They are soon forgotten and never return. Our dead never forget this beautiful world that gave them being.’

 

In other words, those of us who genuinely value local heroes / relatives will raise them to Universal level. Beyond that they cannot be accessed through local communities. We have to become Universal. In Democracy, this is global. Hence those who married local autocrats like LTTE chief, or Gotabaya Rajapaksa, would become widows at global level.

 

 Now that there is Natural restructure of Global positions due to Covid, those of us who sought sovereignty at local level, would not be able to access global opportunities. The Americans have lost interest in SOFA, and to a lesser degree in QUAD. Hiroshima is the brain where intuitive Energy of Nuclear Healing is preserved. In Sri Lanka, this is at Mullivaikal, in the Northern Province of Sri Lanka. But only those who share in the agony of victims, without taking revenge or benefits will have the insight to identify with the solution written by our common ancestors .
