Wasa Warthi Mara

Wasa Warthi Mara was a potential uncle of Buddha.

He had triplets Tanha, Rathi and Raga.

 

They were not Mara Queens but only an analogy but real human beings.

Mara means to distract Buddha's concentration for Enlightenment.

 

Our Buddhist monks were literary experts but could not master Dhamma like this Mevanapalane guy who is good at exploiting young girls on the 15th day of his 14 day short sessions.

I have not understood real Dhamma after many years of trying.

I am doing final editions on a book on Meditation.

Business Enterprise of Meditation.

 

I have decided to change the name to "Meditation Betrayed".

 

No different from Kiribathgodaya.

Pulathissa was born 7800 years ago

Pulathissa was born 7800 years ago during Kasshapa Buddha. This is recorded in a cave and there us map of India and Ceylon.

Pulathissa was addressed as a Muni and he was a Teacher of Ayurveda and he had gone to India to teach Ayurveda to Indian students.

What Indians are telling us is wrong.

Bimba, Kumba and Bamba were three sons of Ravana King Wesamuni

Bimba, Bamba and Kumba were 3 sons of King Ravana.

Keveni is one of  the daughters of one of these sons.

This is according to Jayaratne Pathiraarchchi.

British Vandalism of Ravana Relics of Nuwera Eliya

This is in Evolution and finding facts for a book in the future.

British for their Wisdom had removed a Sel-Lipi in Harrassagla, Nuwara Eliya, a Stone Relic erected to locate the place where King Ravana was interned.

It is said Ravana Curse follow any who desecrated these places.

The Kachcheri was supposed to have caught fire three times in Nuwera Eliya and subsequently the last Kachcheri was build plastering the Sell-Lipi to the wall. 

This the level they go to destroy our ancient history.

It is human vandalism not seen even during Roman time.

With time truth will emerge and the British will be shamed damned for these sordid acts.

I do not ask for representative actions but we should explose the truth in the name of Buddha who followed long after Ravana.

No wonder Coffee and Tea Plantation would have been a ploy to erase this history.

Locals or Sinhala People did not want our history to be erased so they did not volunteer working in the estates.

They were not lazy buy were smart for the time.

Tamils were user for this purpose and currently using Norwegian and Tamil diaspora to do the bidding for erasing the true History of Ceylon.

Raj Somadeva and Indians are still continue to do this shoddy work unhindered.

It is time for proper investigation.

Bokken Kleppe is also in this game.

Working on Sinhala Font

I used to fiddle with Types of Keyboards including French Keyboard but could not get either French or Sinhala document published on Google Blog.

I gave up.

 

Google has done a grand overall with the help of AI.

I am revisiting both Sinhala and French.

Unfortunately, Linux computer is falling behind.

I would import these files from the cellphone to my computer.

First attempt is successful.

I hope Google let me use Sinhala Keyboard in my PC computer.

 

It is working OK with my cellphone and tablets.

Harankahawa Sell-Lipi

According to Jayaratne Pathiraarachchi in Harankahawa, Pujaptiya there is a Sel-Lipi dating back to 18,000 used by an astronaut.

I believe him.

Indian Counterfeiting Drugs

Indians Counterfeiting Drugs
Wednesday, February 12, 2014

Below I reproduce an article for the greater good of the poor patients.

Counterfeiting Drugs
Even though, I do not write on medical topics now, this is an issue, I was involved for over 40 years but has not seen any improvement after the demise of late professor Senaka Bibile.

It has got worse over the past 20 years and I never buy Indian Drugs for my consumption.
 
Even if, the tender procedures look OK on paper by the time the drugs are shipped from India over 40 to 50 are dud ones (counterfeiting is not the correct term) so that, 50 of the good stuff is filtered and given to pharmacies in India at cut rate.
 
This happen in Ceylon, too.
 
Almost 50% from the SPC stuff is filtered out and dud ones are introduced.
 
There is a Drug Mafia running parallel with illegal (heroin) stuff and that is where almost 50% of the black currency is originated.

That is how the democracy works here and in India and perpetrators (because they are in the majority anyway) are protected by politicians.
 
Americans have woken up but it is too late for the poor patients in Americas.
 
How India's Drug Biz Can Compromise Your Pills‬‬‬‬

In the cutthroat business of generic drug manufacturing it’s the little things that can bolster a company’s bottom line—like fabricating data about quality instead of fully testing products.
 
Some major drug plants in India that exported medications to the U.S., it seems, did just that.

Such shoddy practices can lead to medicine that does not perform as it should or, worse, causes harmful side effects.
In recent years these kinds of incidents have prompted the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to place bans on several prominent drug suppliers in India.
To follow up, FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg is going to India this week to meet with its health minister and industry officials. India’s drug and food programs will be at the top of the agenda, according to the FDA.
India is currently the second-biggest drug provider, after Canada, and the eighth-largest exporter of food products to the U.S.

The meeting comes shortly after the U.S. curbed imports at yet another plant belonging to Ranbaxy Laboratories, Ltd., India’s largest drug manufacturer and one of the largest U.S. suppliers. Last month the FDA banned a Ranbaxy plant from producing or distributing drug ingredients for the U.S. market; the firm was caught retesting materials to produce acceptable findings after they had failed the first time around. The company had neither investigated nor reported why the products failed initially, the FDA says.
Since 2008 the FDA has issued four bans against Ranbaxy plants.
At present, no Ranbaxy human drug products are being imported into the U.S.
The company has already pleaded guilty to federal drug safety violations as part of a $500-million settlement with the FDA, after a whistleblower from inside Ranbaxy came forward.

Separately, Ranbaxy has experienced other quality and control lapses, one of which allowed pieces of glass to get into its generic Lipitor tablets in 2012. Ranbaxy is not the only Indian company that has been cited for sending flawed products to the U.S.
Wockhardt and RPG Life Sciences have also received FDA admonishments.

Some critics have blamed lackluster FDA inspection practices for the mishaps, noting that although the FDA inspects domestic plants every two years, it only inspects foreign plants about once every seven to 13 years.
In fiscal 2009, for example, the FDA inspected 1,015 domestic establishments but only 424 in all foreign countries combined. FDA data indicates that in 2013 the agency performed 111 inspections at Indian drug facilities.

Simply ramping up the number of FDA inspections overseas would not solve the problem, however, says Roger Bate, a scholar at the American Enterprise Institute who studies the drug market. More unannounced inspections in India, along with testing products these plants send to the U.S. would help, he says, but any watershed changes would need to be fueled by the Indian government.
The power to inspect and shut down facilities rests with each state in India, and some states are more diligent than others, he says.
He notes that empowering India’s Central Drugs Standard Control Organization—equivalent to the FDA—to take action would help address the issue.

Commissioner Hamburg’s eight-day trip will apply needed pressure to the Indian government to crack down on the problem, Bate says. Hamburg is slated to take up food and drug safety issues during meetings with the CEOs of major drug and food producers and with India’s ministers for Commerce and Industry, Health and Family Welfare, and the drug controller general as well as state-level regulators.

She will also be meeting with World Health Organization officials and speaking at the World Spice Congress. India supplies nearly one quarter of the spices, oil and food colorings used in the U.S., but an FDA evaluation last fall found that some of the Indian spices were contaminated.
Just one of many findings: almost 9 percent of the 1,057 spice shipments from India were laced with salmonella.

President Putin can deliver

President Putin can deliver
 
Tuesday, February 25, 2014
 
President Putin has delivered, what all Russians could be proud of

My comments about Mr. Putin and Russian politics are proven wrong.
 
There aren't any credible geo-politicians, left on this planet

We are going from crisis to crisis.

President Putin has delivered, what all Russians could be proud of.
 
I watched “Sochi Olympics” with much more enthusiasm than watching Sir-Lankans playing cricket with Bangladesh and English getting a real drubbing in Test Cricket by Australians.

The C in cricket stands for Crime and Corruption and I have changed it to Wicket and W in Wicket stands for wickedness they handed over to English.
The mighty South Africans who played well.
Eventuality, caused burnt out for England, and Kevin Peterson (P stands for Pride here), the not so nice guy in the dressing room (because he speaks his heart out unlike, the English who are born with two tongues- one tries to speak the truth, the other is deceptive).

Before taking about Mr. Putin let me dispense the English and Australians.

Like the way they dealt with Kevin, English use the Terrorist Rump (the backside of English politics)  who did sweet nothing to Ceylonese - Sri-Lankan- Image-to their advantage and dump them (like Kevin) off when the going is BAD or Touch,too Bad.

So before they went to Sochi, they were looking for holes (only found ARSxxxxx) in Russian Terrorist Rump and found nothing to find and ended up looking for toilet bowls and were balled out in Medal Table.

The BBC (they have an obsessive group of so called almost Nutty, sometimes Nutzie) group of journalists who were always unhappy even given the best of comforts) never portrayed the true “Russian Spirit”.

Unlike the British, the ordinary Russians are very sweet guys and girls.
 
They can bring the best out, given even the worst of comforts.

They looked after their stray dogs, too.

They proved their mettle without any doubt in Sochi.

The Australians who are also petting terrorist rump (what is left of it) fared worse than English.

What has happened to their “Macho Image” in Cricket and Rugger?

They can say it is a desert and Wild Continent and can wash their hands off.

But I am amazed.

To the Americans, my hat's off to the Olympians who adopted, so many puppies.
 
He is a guy who everyone should admire.

What has happened to “Puppy Sense” of British and Australians?

They must be thinking of quarantining the hypothetical Russian terrorist genes in their “Puppy Blood” before adopting them but they could adopt any terrorist with two legs, left our shores without any hesitation.

That is their wisdom in politics, of course.

Coming to Canada winning the Olympic Hockey (my favorite game being a hockey player of yesteryear (not ICE hockey) is creditable but their political brain is frozen when it comes to terrorists.

It is the breeding ground for the “Next Generation” of terrorists including money laundering and “Yuppie Type” guys and girls involved in “Cyber Cafe Crimes” (money is raised with illegal drugs coming from Mexico through Americas).

Those behind the Iron Curtain dealt a body blow to “Fanatic Muslim Terrorists” with and Iron Fist which Mrs Thatcher now in her grave could be proud of.

Not only that they topped the Medal Table too.

In the mean time all in the European Commission guys were busy splitting the Ukraine into Anarchy.

That is how the Europeans outside, the Greater Russia expanding their Neo-colonialism.

I think Mr. Putin should put an end to this SAGA in Ukraine with real politics, now that the Sochi Olympics is over.

Are YOU a Successful Politician?

Are YOU a Successful Politician?
 

How to become a Successful Politician
 
I was getting totally fed up of all politics both local and global, mainly because it effected my writing habits, especially books.
 

I was particularly interested in Election in USA.
 

Local election, I knew the outcome well in advance and the total lack 

of political will of the opposition.
 

They were all geared up for the big post and spent all their money, resources and time, on that post.

Burnt out Syndrome!

They forgot that in parliamentary democracy what is important is vibrant opposition.
 

I say our citizen's are stupid enough to give 2/3rd majority.

I was particularly interested in ousting corrupt War Mongering Democrats.
 

It has come good but very soon MIC with it's might will turn Donald Trump into War Footing, starting from Israel to begin with.

Ukraine has become a dead end for Americans but EU guys with twisted tongue will continue to carry the War Flames.

This was of course a dream.

 
This is the Topic of my next book, too.
It has some caveats.
 

Book won't be published but only on digital form.
 

If any body wants a copy FREE, he or she has to read one of my old books and send me an email to the email address given, in that book in the last page of the book.

Let me say, it is a Yahoo Mail opened well before Gmail.
 
I have never got an email in respond to any of my books published, either due to nobody has read it / them at all or s/he has not read the last few pages.

Then they have to find this blog site (I have not given any clues) and quote the latest blog piece to qualify for a free book.
 

Idea is to promote this site and not my books.

Let me say a few words to the guys who were selected to the Parliament in Ceylon.
 
1. Will they pass a bill to cancel pensions for MPs?
 
This is to save money for the coffers to begin with.
 

This has to be done before they take over the official residences of past presidents.

I bet that they cannot get this piece passed in the present parliament.
 
Reasons are many.
 
a) The privileges for a MP far exceed any CEO in America.
 
b) When they see the comforts provided to the MPs in the present parliament, no one would blame Pxxxxx Nanayakkara (who lost his seat for the first time and he was a List MP not answerable to any average citizen. 

He brought filth to the parliament for the first time.

His crave and stamina to last so long without repugnance is astounding.

c) They will never get 2/3rd majority for this bill.
At worst they would say they would introduce this  "no pension for MPs" in the next constitution.
 

I will leave at that.

To read about my dream one has to read my digital book.

This book is given free to anybody including present parliamentarians to promote Total Digitization of Government Activities.

This government promised digitization and I want to see how they would do it, successfully.

I will not dish out or volunteer how it can be done being a fully digital man for ages.

I do not use a Mobile

Why I do not use a Mobile
Tuesday, February 11, 2014

I do not use a Mobile
 
Mind you I have a land phone.

Read this in tandem with attention deficit (new syndrome defined by me) below.
 
This is something I posted elsewhere.

I have 100 or more reasons why I do not have or use a cellphone.

I will list them as they come to my mind but not in any order of priority.
 
As an intern I hated all calls mobile included since it meant, a batch of new arrival of small kids who have arrived in absolutely appalling condition.

Some of them fitting due to low blood sugar nearing zero.
 
In fact, I had 8 to 10 kids whose blood sugar and CSF sugar levels were down to zero.
 
The government at that time told the public it was due to encephalitis and I proved them wrong even without my medical registration completed.
I used to take blood samples to Medical Reaserch Laboratory in Borella and come the next week to collect the reports.

This is during Sirima and NM and Covinn time.

Then in 6 months later when I went to collect my own data they had disappeared mysteriously from, medical records.
 
Then, what I did subsequently, I have to pen down on a latter date of my life, nearing my death.

One thing was sure, leaving this messy Health Service and I decided to leave the Public Health Service for good and I was glad I did that and if you read Dengue Dilemma elsewhere, in my writings, one can easily guess it.
 
It has deteriorated in quality even though, it has expanded.
 
As a doctor, I hated bad news by telephone.
 
We rarely hear good news when on duty.
 
Later in life when cellphone came, I believed in CPP (Calling Party Pays) and flatly refused a cellphone.

It is a public nuisance.
 
It is a nuisance when the cellphone owner has switched it off when one really need him / her.
 
When you travel on a public transport one cannot have a snooze to drown the inconvenience with frequent telephone interruptions.
 
I love silence in public places.
 
Even though, I don’t use it, I have to foot the bill (kid's telephone bills).
 
 No work get done in public officers.
 
They are busy answering their private calls of nature and it is more frequent than the real call of nature.
 
It is cheaper to redirect a message by email that should end up as a junk or a piece of gossip.
 
We use it for gossip not for creative work.
 
It is private enemy number one when you own the bank or telephone company a small sum in arrears and the reminders by them costs more than the amount you actually own them.

I think you got the picture correct.

I think it is enough for today but I will add more on future date when I run short of a topic to write.
 
Memory and Gadgets
Attention Deficit Related (Mundane gadgets like tablets) to Technology Addiction.

Many years ago, I posted an article on the web regarding memory specially in reference to Buddhist Monks of yesteryear (not today´s TV acting MahaMewna Type) and all the points except my assertion on Mediation Practice (focused attention on the present moment) was copied by an Author of the Scientific American Publication and most recently by another author.

This is one reason, I thought of writing a few books before my memory fails by default and due to old age.

It is rather loss of short term memory and now I have coined a fancy Medical Term.

Few years ago (I still do not take a note or reminder but devised a 24 hour simple protocol to enhance day to day activity), I noticed lapses in my memory and got activated.

1. I won´t use the telephone but buy a cheapest cellphone when I go abroad and drop it to a bin at the airport (this is the biggest handicap and in the middle of your work, one may give a call with a low priority-gossip related call).

When I tried to do that long time ago, one of my relatives in Singapore asked for it and duly obliged. Another one I used for sometime gave it free to a classmate of mine.
His son had lost his expensive cellphone when travelling to Colombo by bus.

Who Cares for an expensive cellphone.

Thank God, one can switch off the cell, then what is the use of a telephone, if it is not doing it's job, simply transfer a message.

I use my land phone at my discretion since I pay the bill.
Not even the Telecom (delay in payment) or the a bank officer can break that law and break into my freedom.
 
2. Won´t sit in front of the TV and watch web videos unless it is related to animals, especially Elephants.

One Baby Elephant dead was trapped in a tree in this country.

There is a video of an elephant mum protecting its young baby from hyenas (we have to protect the young one's from political hyenas and some rabid monks in saffron cloth).

3. I live with living things, the dog, fish, and plants, including water plants.

All three will die if I do not have some simple protocol, not so rigid but to remind me that there are other lifes on this planet, in relation to me.

Fortunately fish can go on for 10 days without food.

If neglected any longer toxic algae will kill them.

A dog will die within three days without water, if there is no care giver.

Believe it or not Dogs never use telephones even in an emergency.
They only BARK.

My dog in particular will start barking for no reason when I am on the phone.
 
He wants me to stop talking quickly and he has not got a degree in economics but he knows how to cut my telephone bill.
 
The garden will go to wilderness in no time.

All these little things one has to be mindful, however busy one is in day to day life, even if one has servants to look after these odd jobs.

They will never do them right in my experience.
 
4. Use the computer and the email productively.

5. Keep in touch with family and family friends in person.
When one sees a friend, just stop for a few minutes and greet them and have some empathy.
You may not see them again could even be run over by a vehicle driven by a fast track lumpen with a cellphone in hand.
 
I am predicting now with Facebook and low priority web videos, the present young generation will hit a very low point, in their middle age with Attention Deficit and I am going to coin the Medical Term, Attention Deficit Related to (Mundane gadgets like tablets) Technology Addiction (AD-R-TA- RTA stands for Road Traffic Accidents and some of these gadgets may trigger an accident on the road too).
