Kolon Thota, Kolon-Wewa and Kolon Nawa

The biggest Tank or Wewa is in Horrowwa Pathana.
Next biggest is the Colombo Wewa.
It occupied the Navaloka Hospital, Navam Mawstha, Hunupitiya and Gangaramaya during Portuguese times.

Colombo Wewa was not given to Portuguese but they were given Kalpitiya where fishing community has many Portuguese names.
Kalpitiya subsequently was used to dry fish. I used purchase them at Halawatha or Puttalam to be taken to Kandy

Kolon Newa means had a bath from Kolon Wewa.

I worked in Negambo for a short time.
During L.T.T.E.  upsurge Tamils from North came to buy products from Colombo. 
Guy in Karapitiya helped them.
One day a guy from Karapitiya came and paid Rs.10,000/=. I asked him to sign on the register but he did not. I knew he was LTTE guy and he could not speak in Sinhala. I told him do not come again in English and I might get landed with the police. Notes were brand new and if I remeber right the water mark was missing.
I told the manager to dispose them as quickly as possible and send a word of mouth message to Prime Minister Premadasa that forge noted are coming through Karapitiya.
Police in Negambo was clueless of forged notes. I trained our staff to examine notes carefully before accepting money lest we get caught by the Bankers.
Then of course sons of Presidents started printing forge money and it was common occurrence. I never accepted any notes I considered forged.

Yakada Yaka

Yakada Yakka is Ravana King
Yakada = Iron
Yakka = Tribe perfected Iron Industry 
Urn = Iron Boundary
28,000 ago iron foundry was detected in Ratnapura/ Balangoda in Ceylon.
Balangoda man was 30,000 years into the past.
Grains were found in Caves.
 
These Ravana tribes were good at stone carving, too.

Lanka Deepa

Ceylon was named during Kaku Sanda Buddha as
Odja Deepa
Wara Deepa
Manda Deepa
Lanka Deepa

My Position Regarding Citizen Ranil Wickramasinghe

My Position Regarding Citizen Rani Wickramasinghe

My Position Regarding Citizen Rani Wickramasinghe is clear.

He was rejected by the general public twice and as an old man he should retire and become an ordinary citizen, again.

He is good for an ornamental political coffin or ideally a political dustbin.

Making him a hero is not good for our politics.

He did not settle any of our long standing loans but delayed payment until 2028. 

We have to pay back the loans with accrued interests which is worse than paying it now itself.

He should be treated like any other citizen and he does not deserve any special treatment at all.  

If there is a legal provision to prosecute him it should not be delayed. If there is any legal procedure against a politician it is dragged inordinately until that government is out of power. A case against Senior Premadasa came out 12 years after his death. 

So far only one minister had seved his sentence and two others went to prison. 

Ranil should be in this list if he had done punishable deeds politically or otherwise.

Along with Gaminie Lokuge, he was involved in disappearances of Students of the Peradeniya Univesity, when I was young Medical guy working in the university

seconded from the Department of Health.

Equally one of my friends Nagahawatta who was an army volunteer officer was killed by NPP/JVP guy in 1987/89 in the university and dumped into Alwis Pond. 

I was witness to the killing of our vegetable vendor in Digana village. 

He was not allowed to come to my clinic which was right across the road. A few children under my care died because they were not allowed to attend my clinic at Digana.

138 bodies were dumped into Manikhinna Hospital. They were killed because they were forced to parade against the police in Manikhinna and Digana. Our hospital team was asked to join the parade and I stopped them going there, lest they would have been among the 138. 

Police dumped several bodies for public display in Digana.

I am not defending neither police nor army. 

I did not think Airfoce guys were involved and their training seems to be different.

I was a temporary lecturer (not as officer medical officer but a teacher) in the University and I resigned from my post with two kids to feed when my friend Nagahawatta was killed. He was from the Arts Faculty.

I was without a job for six months and joined the Private sector and ended up at Navaloka Hospital. I worked for Quality Control in Hospital Management and Navaloka was awarded the National Quality award.

Incidentally, J.R.J was warded with terminal illness, I never went to see him but I signed all his reports as part of the Quality Control (there was no need for me to countersign) work.

I signed his last blood report most likely taken after his demise, and I made a "verbal comment" that this guy ought to be dead. 

Sure enough, I saw white flags when I passed Ragama railway station.

Ragama railway station, on my train journeys I have never alighted but has a special memory in my mind. A rouge guy threw a stone at the railway and it hit my forehead narrowly missing my left eye. 

Without alighting at Peradeniya, I went to Kandy station and reported this incident. I made sure this guy and several others were caught. 

Then, there was a gang of pickpockets who board from Ragama and steal things from train passengers. After six months of investigation with the help of a forensic medical guy we rounded them up. 

The number if I remember right was between 25 to 30.

In actual fact, his wrist watch was snatched by these pickpockets at the Panideniya Junction.

Regarding my injury, I went to Peradeniya hospital (the place I was trained and also worked as a teacher) for a X-ray and I was kept until midnight for the wound toilet. 

Again a shoddy job.

It took nearly three months for it to heal and the sand particles or the silica particles to come out on their own accord. Had I not taken antibiotics on my own accord (hospital did not dish out any), I could have been dead by a nasty meningitis episode.

Renukane Chanda Wimala and my boss during my internship Dr. S.S. Drahaman were hospitalized along with J.R.J. but   neither recovered from the illness. I of course, went to see Dr. Drahaman but he was desperately ill and couldn't recognize me.

Just to say, Private hospitals are no better.

This is just for Sepala to make a note why I am now in Australia but would never come home. 

I did my part today for "Australia Clean" and dumped all the rubbish where it belonged, which included recycling material.

Ceylon will never regain its glory of the time of Dudley Senanayake.

I wish not be born again in Ceylon, having seen Jayaratne Pathiraarachchi's YouTube presentation where he had to do the cooking (for his wife), which included cleaning up little fish Salaya. 

I would advice him to a take protein rich diet to regain his composure. 

He looks deficient in B Vitamins. May be related to the toddy he drinks. For his own health he should gradually stop drinking which I did over three years and totally free of alcohol now for 10 years, of course after my retirement. 

I stopped drinking since it affected my memory ( short term memory).

Cooking is far better than making a YouTube presentation to grab some money from gullible viewers.



Ravana Curse would Befall on Indians and Ceylonese who help Indians

Yes, from first of October, 2025, Ravana Curse would Befall on all Indians and Ceylonese who help Indians.
 
I would only list the Ceylonese most likely to be affected.

This will continue until Jayaratne Pathiraarachchi stops eating fish
 
In my case on medical grounds, I advice him to eat fish but stop drinking Toddy so that his Liver condition improves.
 
He should eat Niwithie and Cashew nuts to supplement Iron and Essential Fatty acids.

1. Ranil Wickramasinghe comes first for planning to sell Mihintale to United State through Indians.

2. All Ceylonese who work on Sirasa Channel 

3. All Ceylonese who works Swarnawahini which belongs to Ali Rajah Subhashwaran.
 
It belongs to a L.T.T.E. subsidiary 

4. Guys who are promoting to cell Digitization of ID cards 

5. Anura Dissanayake who signed 7 undeclared pacts with India.

6. All MPs who vote for these undesirable legislation in the parliament.

7. All MPs who wish speedy recovery for Ranil. 
Kamma forces should befall on him, for the disappearance of youth in 1988/89.

Gods and Humans

Gods and Humans
I am good in my mathematics and I could not count the 31 (4 of the Arupavatara without physical bodies need not have a world to manifest themselves, in other words Mind only beings) Gods, having referred to the Buddhist Dictionary of Reverend Nyanathiloka.

I have counted only 22 (6 in this world, 12 in fine material worlds and 4 in immaterial worlds) Gods in total.

I have 9 Gods not accounted for.

So if I add six (6 ) of the Hindu Gods in all six directions, I still get 3 more gods unaccounted for.

I think Buddhist monks are bad in mathematics.

That is not the point, I want to drive here.

Being born as a human is supreme.

Buddhas are born only in human worlds.
 
Hitler's are also born in this world.


We have both good and bad.

Buddhism does not cater for gods.
But in Kandyan Perehara there are four gods.
1. Vishnu the Hindu God
2. Paththini
3. Saman god of Adam's peak.
4. Kataragama againg a god devoted for Tamils
5. Sakka if the chief of gods
6. Vibhushana is a King turned God.
Youngest brother of Ravana and the eldest is Kuberu.
Ravana the most prominent is not revered as God. There is a deliberate attempt to suppress his name by Indian authors.


Buddha has often repeatedly said being born in a heavenly world is a waste of time and waste of good Kamma.

He also has stated those heavenly beings fall to lower realms when they die at the end and when the good Kamma expires.

So worshiping gods and trying to become a god is waste of human energy.

It is high time we act as humans and save lives of human beings involved in futile War.

I am not going to take a side in this War.

War always has a beginning but it's end is often blurred.

Very rarely we get a chance to be born as humans and if we waste that human life in War, one is most likely to be dead and be born again in hell as a demon.

Humans can become demons as well as gods in this world.

Coming back to Buddhist Cosmology;

If I count OUT, 4 of the immaterial worlds, I get 18 gods  (18 worlds), in total.
 
Not worth being in one of them.

Be human!

Rarity of Humanoids

Human beings (manussa loka)
Rebirth as a human being is extraordinarily rare.
 

The assumption here is there are only 5 types of humanoids in only five planets.

 

Sinister Attempt NOT to hoist the National Flag and recite the National Anthem

The Niragamika theme has NOW morphed NOT to hoist the National Flag and NOT to recite the National Anthem in school.
This is the action priority of the current Education Minister who did graduate in India.
This is INDIANS using its L.T.T.E. proxy to destabilize National Unity.
It started with rejecting Jaya Mangala Gatha.
 
This is the program of One Party or Communist Party propaganda.

Why I do not use a Raspberry Pie?

 Why I do not use a Raspberry Pie?

With Microchip Industry at its peak it is not worth investing on technical gadgets. 

If I am given the chance, instead of a Raspberry Pie, I would have made my Mini Computer on a Simple Keyboard  by integrating the CPU and RAM of my NUC on the keyboard base. 

Just stick the NUC circuit board and mini RAM to the keyboard. 

Instead of a TV monitor, a Liquid Crystal Display would function as my digital reader cum monitor, ideally folded into two halves.       

It is humanly possible to make, such a device and   it would be much cheaper but these Corporate Giants would never consider such a venture. 

By the way, the keyboard would be bit bigger, thicker and heavier.

The Corporate Giants target is profits.

I started with 4MB Video RAM and 128MB chip RAM to begin with. 

Full sketch of my "Globe Trotter" design would be given in my book "Linux Essentials".
