රනිල් වික්‍රමසිංහට පව් අනේ

මේක වක්‍ර සොයා බැලීමක ප්‍රතිපලයක්.

මීවනපලාන යි, කිරිබත්ගොඩ පොරයි අනිකුත් ගෝල බාල දේශකයන් විසින් කෝල්ලෝ බිලි බාන විදිහට, මැතිවරණයක් එනකොට කොළ බෙදන්න වත් රනිල්ට කොල්ලෝ ඉතිරි වෙන්න නැ.

අනේ පව් නේද?

බුදුන් උපන් දේශය ලංකාවයි

I was looking for a free download of a book on "Buddha was born in Ceylon".
I could not find. This was made on the belief that Buddha was a FREE man and he did not advertise himself.
It is a different world and different ball game eveything goes with the exchange of money/cash.

මම තීරණය කලා ජයරත්න පතිරආරච්චි වෙනුවෙන් ඉන්ග්‍රිසියෙන් පොතක්‌ කරන්න. 
ඔහුට Royalties ලැබෙන ක්‍රමයක්‌ හිතන්න ඕන. එක වැඩේ ඉවර උනාම.

පෙර හුරුවක් ලෙස ඔහුගේ වෙබ් page එකෙන් page by page cut and paste කලා.

සිංහල අකුරු ගැන පොඩි අධ්‍යානකුත් කලා. 

Abiword ගන්නේ unicode පමණයි.
LibreOffice එකේ cut and paste විදියට Sinhala font ගන්න පුළුවන්.

පැයක් විතර ගියා.

මීවනපලානේ ගැනත් පොඩි Foresnsic වැඩක් කලා.
මිනිහා කම්පුටෙර් වැඩ කාරයෙක් නෙවේ.

අනික හරියට කියන්න බැ.

ජයරත්න පතිරරච්ච් නන් හරි clean.
Publication 2017 and 2018.

මීවනපලානේ නන්  පැහැදිලිව ඉට පස්සේ.

පොඩි ෆොන්ට්. 
එයාගේ කොල්ලෙක් කරලා දෙන්න ඇති.

I stop here for now.
Vegetarian Saga book is reaching 400 pages. I decided to put Sinhala Unicode in AbiWord and get the Table both in English and Sinhala. 
It is coming all right.
Linux is coming to save me.

Helena Petrovan Blavatsky and Theosophy

This piece is in evolution

Helena Petrovan Blavatsky

Born to Russia aristocracy she broke from her marriage at the age of 17 and started traveling all over the world.

Born in  31 of July 1931
Died 8 May 1991 aged 60 years.
 
Three founders of Theosophy
Amalgamation of Buddhism, Hinduism and Neoplatonism.
 
1. Henry Olcott helped to Establish Buddhism in Ceylon
 
2. William Judge
 
William Quan Judge died on March 21, 1896, at the age of 44, from illness exacerbated by his continuous work and the effects of Chagres fever. After Helena Blavatsky's death, Judge led the secession of the majority of the Theosophical Society's American Section in 1895, which had declared autonomy from the Adyar branch in India and elected him President for life. Following his death, leadership of his organization passed to Katherine Tingley
 
3. Helena Petrovan Blavatsky 
Took Indian Spiritual and Psychic domain
 
Master Moria an Indian.
Tried to go Tibet but stopped by the British but however she went to Tibet in 1855 and was lost.
She returned to England and met Moria again in 1857.
For her own good she kept a record of her deeds.
 
She was very intelligent woman but got lost in Psychic domain.
She began to theorize her own ideas and lost in her own dreams.
 
My own analysis is these people who have psychic powers and get involved in showing their psychic power go into a delusional stage
 
This happens to guys and girls who engage in deep meditation practice.
 
This is my analysis as a scientific doctor with some documented cases over 30 years and not as a  psychiatric. I have big book coming soon "Meditation Bushiness" soon.
I have no hurry  and doing it at easy pace but really interested in making Linux penetration 10% in the PC market.

Polar race
Hyperborean race
Lemurian race
Atlantean race
Aryan race
Future race of astral plane
Future race Samadhi tatva


It was her inability understand other cosmological being of 31 planes described in Buddhism.
I have book on Buddhist cosmology (not Indian)

I am documenting them for the current race and not for future race.
We are at the threshold of nuclear war and the the possibility of the 6th extinction

 එළවළු - Vegetables

This is a simple attempt to introduce Vegetarian Diet.

Eggs and milk should not be ignored.

However, fish should not be discarded but all the other meats, including chicken, beef, pork, venison and even monkey flesh should be viewed with disdain and revulsion.

Buthsarana

 

 Buthsarana

Indian shot(Canna indica)

Saru Diwiyata Deshiya Ala states that the Indian shot plant grows to about five to six feet in height and has long, slightly broad leaves with brown stems. The booklet also states that the round yams of this plant can be found in two varieties: rathu buthsarana (red Indian shot) and sudu buthsarana (white Indian shot).

“Indian shot yams] are very tasty and are very high in starch. Unlike the other varieties of local yams,  have a slightly sweet taste.” 

Both the red and the white variety of these yams have many medicinal properties and have been noted in curing jaundice (yellow fever) and preventing phlegm-inducing diseases in infants.

Because of the high starch content in Indian shot yams and their ability to help reduce phlegm, they are an ideal food to be given to patients suffering from phlegm-inducing illnesses, and those who are physically weak and need a lot of nourishment.

 

Arrowroot

 

Arrowroot

Hulankeeriya (Maranta arundinacea)

According to the book Saru Diwiyata Deshiya Ala, the Veddas call this tuberarukka

It contains protein, vitamins, calcium, and a high content of carbohydrates.

The yams of the arrowroot plant are narrow and white in colour, while the plant grows to about one to two feet in height and has long, dark green leaves.

Saru Diwiyata Deshiya Alamentions many health benefits which can be obtained by consuming arrowroot. Because of its high protein content, doctors recommend the yams for patients who need to consume a lot of protein foods.

Consuming the yam is also beneficial in preventing and alleviating illnesses related to the digestive tract, like indigestion and ulcers. Flour made from these yams is also a nutritious food for patients with heart ailments.

Air Potato

 

Air Potato

Udala (Dioscorea bulbifera)

The yams are grown not on soil but on the vine, so it is called Udala, meaning not air but above the soil. The tubers of the Udala creeper too, are large in size and have a taste which is very similar to potatoes. Another interesting fact about the Udala creeper is that it produces smaller tuber-like rhizomes on its surface.      

It not as tasty as Rajala. 

There is also a second kind of Udala

This variety has white spots on its large, round leaves. The yams, too, have white spots on their peel. However, the yams of this variety of Udala are not eaten but only used in traditional medicine.

Rajala

 Rajala

Greater Yam

Purple yam/ (Dioscorea alata)

The English name for the Sinhala yam known as "Wal-ala" (වැල් අල) is Greater Yam or Winged Yam. 

Wal in Sinhla means vine

It is also called Purple Yam due to the beautiful colour of its flesh. 

The common English name is Dioscorea alata, the species to which Wal-ala belongs. 

The name Rajala has been given to these yams because of their immense size. 

While many of the other varieties of creepers, bushes or plants that have edible tubers or roots usually produce multiple yams growing under each one, the Rajala creeper usually produces several large sized yam. 

With their weight they drop to the soil where another vine sprouts

I essence only one yam is seen during a season. 

Two separate varieties one with a light purple peel and the other with dark purple peel. 

After these yams are boiled they have a floury texture and can be eaten alone as a meal or can be made into gruel and sweet meats like muscat.

My friend and a distant elderly brother is a veteran in farming and naming plants according to local tradition

He had several of these creepers in his garden. He was the youngest and his education was deliberately crushed by his elder brothers and sister so that there is somebody to look after the big plot of land. 

Besides, he was very good at making kites and we were best of friends and every day after schooling I go and meet him knowing he was ill treated. 

When I became a doctor, I confronted them and said he could have become a graduate if not doctor and what they did was very bad. 

They used to avoid me. I kept in touch with him until, I left Ceylon and pay a visit at least once a month with some chocolates and he keeps some local sweet in smell and taste bananas that are not found Australia.

Kiri Habarala

Kiri Habarala

Ratala

Ratala (රටල)

Kiri habarala (කිරි හබරල‍)Desi ala (දේසි අල )

Coleus rotundifolius

Dicotyledons family: Lamiaceae

Genus: Coleus

Common Sinhala name: Ratala

Food crop

I use to collect these yams and grow them in our rooftop garden. When they are ready I uproot them, wash and clean them for cooking.  

I has to be cooked in a proper way otherwise it gives a caustic taste. Our domestic aid was very good at cooking them and make it creamy and that is why it is called Kiri habalaala. 

Sadly she passed away recently and this piece is dedicated to her.

 

Habarala or Alocasia cucullatais the plant also known as hooded dwarf elephant ear

Because it’s skin is water repellent it is used as a makeshift umbrella.      

It has a beautiful large white flower which blooms very rarely. Just before I left Ceylon, it bloomed, may be just to say Good Bye, since I used to  water it liberally. 

It’s yam is supposed to be poisonous but our domestic aid says it can be eaten if properly cooked. I uprooted one of them and gave her a big piece of yam for her to cook in her own home. 

I was scarred to eat

Sadly when she died the tricks of domestic cooking disappear with her. 

I believe the toxin is a cyanogenic glycoside similar to what is found in cassava.
