I was a guy who looked at a situation with either satire or total disgust.
All my life I respected the rule of law or fairness, if not the moral code.
To me morality should be an inborn quality.
It should not imposed upon humanity.
I was poisoned three times in my life and I am fortunate enough to have overcome all three to tell the story, here and now.
All due to simple jealousy and not for something I have done wrong in my life.
Of course, I briefly investigated all three and learned to stay put.
First occasion of I was bit aggressive and went after the guys who planned them.
On the second and third occasions I sort advice from Venerable Ananda Maithriya Thera.
His advice was to leave and stay away from the evil friends
I left Ceylon within 6 weeks of those two episodes.
I developed a technique not to react aggressively to the perpetrators.
In fact, I started developing loving kindness, instead. It started with animals, including, flies, mosquitoes, ants and cockroaches.
I realized that hate is very destructive but loving kindness is very soothing.
Besides, one sleeps well.
Sleep is a good therapy.
Finally I ended up with Karaneeya Metta Sutta.
Of course, I have now graduated to Somanassa Citta or Happy Mind.
Yes, I was happy I was alive after all three episodes.
Why should I bring hate and destroy myself within?
This time round it is different.
I have become proactive.
I left Ceylon 3 years ago.
I knew the current government would come to power.
I voted against the two previous governments and after the election result was declared I openly said so. I knew those government won't come behind me with any vengeance, simply because I did not tell anybody to vote for or against a particular party.
It is only one vote of mine and it does not affect the final outcome.
I also had the scientific analysis who would come to power.
I analyzed and got a figure of 45% for Anura.
In fact, he got 44.5%.
I would have voted against him.
But I had the funny feeling I would not be able to say so openly after the election.
Their election campaign was based on hate and abuse of the opposition.
We instead looked at the election results from here in Australia.
All of them were very keen to see the final result.
I said Anura will win without an outright of 50% of the total vote and I slept throughout the counting.
I decided to leave the country 3 years ago.
No voting and nothing to comment after the election.
No emotions.
Even though, I have made my opinion against NPP based on my previous experiences with them, I have no animosity at all except for Ranil.
In the case of Ranil it is not personal.
I see him as the biggest threat to Free Education in CEYLON.
He is using others for this purpose.
He does not effect my Metta Mode, at all.
It is inbuilt in me.
I think even if I stayed in CEYLON, it would not have affected my composure.
Metta is powerful tool.
This Mara God cannot have any affect on me.
Metta is the only antidote to Mara and his influence.
I think warring factions in USA, Ukraine, Russia, Iran and Israel should read this peace, if they can read English.
War is a waste of time and human lives.
Will we learn that lesson?
Can we avoid World War III?
