Running Parallels with Proxy War in Ceylon and Ukraine

 Running Parallels with Proxy War in Ceylon and Ukraine

Let me be forthright from the very outset.

I am writing this as a simple Buddhist who is totally against any war anywhere on this Planet Earth.

Hatred begets hatred.

Loving kindness brings harmony.

In Ceylon we had over 35 years of political  hatred under J.R.J (U.N.P) and Sirimovo (S.L.F.P).

These two parties and their collateral ruined Ceylon. 

The breakaway offshoot parties from these two parties still carry hatred inCeylon including LSSP, CP and MEP.

There are over 80 registered parties in Ceylon and one is headed by a monk.

According to Buddha monks should not take part in politics or should not give advice to Kings (currently president Biden and Putin), Queens or Presidents.

The latest in this development are Wira Wansa Associate Conglomerate and Champaka's new party of descent (Hate). These two are offshoots of the old JVP lead by Wije (Wira) Weera who started revolution in this country when there was no need or racial animosity in existence.

He started hating India to begin with.

It is believed North  Korea was instrumental  in creating this party of descent who used killing opponents in broad day light, as a political stunt and tool.

Less I talk about L.T.T.E is better and it was a party of hate from its origin and it systematically  exterminated, all other moderate Tamil parties.

T.N.A is the remnant collateral.

I have nothing but admiration for Mr. Sampanthan for his political stamina.

By the way, I do not understand how the Tamil political parties evolved in the North.

Muslim parties analogy is simple.

When two dogs fight, the small dog steals the flesh of politics.

Here is the entry point for CIA.

CIA used Indian RAW as its collateral in creating descent in Ceylon just like in Ukraine.

India hated Ceylon and feared it would supersede Singapore as a power keg of the Indian Ocean.

USA and CIA was eyeing Ceylon as a base.

I know it as first hand information since, I protected the satellite in the surgical theater as a surgical equipment.

India created D.J.V.P (second RAW creation) in 1988-89 to scuttle the launch.

Indira Gandhi was the architect of the first but I am not sure of the second, may be Prime Minister Rajiv.

Only difference in Ukraine was it armed the Neo Nazis and Bandera in Ukraine for over a decade (equivalents of J.V.P and D.J.V.P).

Both Republicans and Democrats without exception helped to create Russophobia.

CIA and MIC (Military industrial Complex) were direct beneficiary but they have now met their nemesis called Russians who withstood Nazis.

It looks like Ukraine militants (Bandera) are going to be all but a pushover for Wagner group and Chechens.

I have sympathy for average Ukrainians who are refugees in Poland and EU countries.

Poland had to stomach spill overs historically.

Coming to India and Indians they did not provide refugee status to Ceylonese Tamils.

That is the typical Duplicity of Indians.

Currently India while buying cheap Russian fuels and selling them back to EU countries 3 times the stock price and are asking for a seat in the Security Council is the real Geopolitical Duplicity.

Pakistan and the rest of the neutral countries should oppose double dealing Indians and there should not be a seat in the Security Council for India.

China obliterated Tibet and Dalai Lama is a lame duck remnant. 

China fought two wars with India for a narrow stretch of land and should not be given a seat in the Security Council.

Instead South Africa deserves a place in the Security Council.

WHO is a colossal waste and should be abolished for the reason allowing CIA to operate lethal viral labs to kill President Putin  in Ukraine (over 22 laboratories in number, may be more).

One need not do anything to resurrect USA and UK for using Depleted Uranium and let the guys/girls who masterminded these operations die of lethal cancers.

France should be allowed to have Nuclear Plants in every city but they should not be allowed to buy Uranium from outside sources, at all. They should dig and mine Uranium in France and not in West Africa.

No gas and fuel from Russia or any other country to France and UK until all the Depleted Uranium is utilized in a War Zone of their choice. 

Above points are raised to show not only India but all except a few EU countries are Duplicity Giants.

This piece is not complete unless I make some references to Israel and Muslim conflict.

Both religions are essentially similar, God based.

One branch arise from a legitimate child and other branch from an illegitimate child from the same father.

The God I think was an intermediary by creating another bifid child of Humans and Gods.

I am a guy who believes in, that the God has no relationship to human evolution. 

If there was a hybrid child it would have been from an alien species who visited this planet millions of years ago having had sex with an evolving primate species.

By the way, the age of this planet is not 7000 years as according toBible and Quran but much more ancient and revising these texts according to at least Sumerian artifacts, if not scientific is mandatory.

By the way these two texts have many editions and are constantly changing with time.

Archaeologists and writers are born liars except for a few.

This comment applies to Bagawath Geetha, too.

Former CDC chairman and his committee of HiFi scientists should be sent to prison for operating "Gain In Function" research in China.

I have a request for President Putin.

We took 35 years to end our war of attrition and we are totally bankrupt. He should end the War (attrition till next Presidential Election in USA is prudent) soon, on his own accord with a Strategic Bomb near the border of Poland (please avoid spent up Uranium) or on the head quarters of the Military Alliance of the EU, lest Russia too, go bankrupt with Esoteric Missiles of mass destruction.

Otherwise, MAD or Mutually Assured Destruction!

Postscript

Please note I am not in Ceylon currently and if I post this post in a local post I will be categorized as a terrorist.

All Ceylonese are by default terrorists thanks to our robust constitution.

I think Ceylon should not have a constitution but let our monks deliberate Security Council Debates, on monthly basis in every village in Ceylon and the U.N.O should fund these rabid monks.

By doing so, (debating security) as rabid dogs,  fighting each other, they will exhaust their inbuilt anger and spent up steam, the rest of the citizens can exercise their free and democratic rights only in their residential domains, if they possess any of their own but not rented out.

According to proposed amendments to the constitution tenants are terrorists with no legal rights.

In the alternative each monk should be provided with a Steam Deck and Drive with a big overhead TV to play "War Games" in preparation of the Security Council Debates.

I have another proposal!

The rent for University Students should be raised by three times the local prices. By doing so, we can reduce the number entering the Universities drastically and then having more dons than undergraduates in every university that fails to function with perennial strikes.

The dons themselves can create creativity  perpetually without students asking valid questions.

Reality of Russophobia

 Reality of Russophobia

Let me dish out President Biden, first.

I am a medical man and I have managed elderly with disease, disability and dementia.

I have dissociated from active medical activities long time ago before my own abilities started to deteriorate. First of all, I give a chance for the young blood to enter into my domain.

Second, I continued to teach and educate.

Third, I consider myself not indispensable.

My  advice for anybody over 50 who is in active duty is to undergo a full medical check up at least,       on two year intervals.

It should be a statutory requirement,

In that sense, President Biden has not been forthcoming. He should retire, if his medical score is below par.

If he does not, he should be warned of the consequences, including impeachment. His son is currently investigated for irregular financial deals with Ukraine company called Barisma. We do not know whether as the Vice President of United State Mr. Biden had any knowledge or not of such activities.

His campaign slogan was regime change in Russia. That by itself was an antidemocratic move.

Russia is a sovereign independent country.

It has its own autonomy as regard to political, social and military.

No nation can boast power play over other countries and nations. The so called American Hegemony is fast collapsing. Using Ukraine as a Proxy War to mitigate Russia has misfired miserably.

Russophobia was a faked political gamble.

One has to fear Russia, if the leader of Russia opposes the right of Russians to live their own lives, according to their own social and political system. President Putin understands his position as the Russian leader and so far his response has been measured in spite of many provocations.

Russia would draw a red line when there is an existential threat. I believe NATO and the West have crossed the red line by offering a seat in European commission. Making an absolutely corrupt country an EU membership is that red line. Ukraine has not achieved the target goal of the EU for any measure. Elections are arbitrarily postponed.

Ukraine so far has done nothing to qualify for membership. If at all, by its own actions it has downgraded itself.

The off ramp strategy pf America is to drum up Russophobia. 

The average American is stupid enough to drum up that sentiment and has no understanding of ground reality and global politics.

His or her mind can be twisted by media.

CNN and Fox News are trying hard but seemingly failing.

1. Russian average family lives a happy life.

2. The vehicle ownership is probably higher than in America.

3. Russians unlike Americans do not eat from rubbish bins.

4. Majority of Russians are practicing orthodox Christians.

5. Russian Communist Party has only 3% share of vote.

6. President Putin's popularity is over 80%.

7. President Biden’a popularity is less than 30% and falling and is considerably lower than President Donald Trump.

8. Street violence is absent in Russia.

9. There is no poverty in Russia and there is no social inequality.

10. Social inequality is prevalent in the West.

United Kingdom is a classic example.

Listen to Jeremy Corbyn, the former labour leader.

11. One can possess a gun in Russia but they never carry guns in public.

12. A Russian's debt is proportional and is mainly related to the house mortgage.

13. Russians promote big family size.

14. Russians love traveling abroad.

Turkey is their popular destination.

15. Russia has its own space program.

16. Russian pilots are the best in the world.

17. Its military can outperform any on this planet.

18. Russian Ruble is strong in spite of the sanctions.

19. Russians love to coexist with other nations.

20. Above all Russians are proud of themselves.

Would you like to live in USA or Russia?

The answer is simple.

This Russophobia is man made!

It is related to paranoia and simple jealousy.

That is the simple behaviour trait of Americans.

Where ever they go, they are not treated with open arms but with suspicion. 

They themselves have created this image and they have nobody except themselves to blame for this tragic reality.

Mind, Memory, Dreams and Consciousness

 Mind, Memory, Dreams and Consciousness

Mind, Memory, Consciousness and Dreams are terms used to describe the working of the brain.

None of these terms are inclusive nor exclusive in enlightening the understanding of the working of the brain.

Brain is the most variable component of these elements, if this discussion is extended to the animal kingdom.

I am going to exclude the brain and its physiology from this entry.

The reasons I will briefly outline.

Brain can exist in a vegetative state with modern technological support as long as artificial ventilation is maintained.

I have done this myself as an neonatal resident in UK.

One example is enough.

Obstetric registrar delivered a baby by cesarean section.

The baby’s heart had stopped a few minutes before.

I was called in and I concurred, in fact, the heart had stopped.

I was in a dilemma.

If I do not resuscitate this baby, I will (this was a locum not a permanent job with my superiors behind me) fall into trouble for negligence.

I made an immediate decision to give intra-cardiac injection and got the attending nurses into full action gear. That included calling in the Senior Registrar for his approval before shoving in the needle to the baby’s heart.

He said OK and the baby’s heart did start in a shutdown state.

I did another stupid thing immediately afterwards.

Shoved in a intra-arterial canula and pumped in saline to stabilize the blood pressure and open up the veins (intra-arterial infusion was not in vogue, then, except at Oxford University).

After stabilizing the physiological state and (in addition), opening an intravenous infusion,  I transferred the baby to the ICU.

This baby started fitting after six hours of resuscitation and for another six weeks.

Everybody including the parents were cursing me behind my back. 

This was good on me and I decided to leave intensive care and UK for good.

Of course in later years, I was more comfortable in pathology where decisions are made “after fact” (like Ceylon Politics) at postmortem.

Even after postmortem only in about 60% one can make solid conclusions.

The postmortem of this baby did not reveal new facts. 

In Ceylon this baby would have been declared dead without resuscitation.

Not having technology is a blessing in disguise.

Now coming to my discussion, this baby’s brain was dead but not his heart.

It was in a vegetative state without properly functioning brain. 

I followed my Buddhist instincts and fell apart with British colleagues.

In my mind, I was not a God to decide the future for this baby’s life, in this life.

I am not an arbitrator of Kamma in evolution.

I did what the physiology could support but could not intervene, in the evolution of the next life.

Like the near death experience of cardiac arrest patients, if I could see into the next life my intervention could have been masterly inactivity. 

But I have no discretion available according to the practice of Western medicine (except supporting life with artificial means).

The “Let Go” principle according to the nature of events unfolding is not something discussed in depth in the West.

I make following prepositions 

None may be correct, some may be correct, certainly, not all of them are correct.

1. Mind inhabits the brain when suitable but exists it when impossible for functioning.

Body and Mind in a comforting each other in the cave of existence.

2. Mind does not become extinct at death.

3. It grabs another living body (brain) by default.

4. The transition period is ill understood as seen in “Near Death Syndrome”.

There is no inter phase or untar-bhava or elderly wise men helping the soul.

The transition is quick and automatic without an intervening phase.

It is like the transmission of an electron through a transistor gate.

The mind enters the transistor portal and goes into the next Bhava of existence instantaneously and it is one way ticket and no coming back. 

The mind floating in space and looking for a place of rebirth of choice with wise men helping in is not at all plausible.

The wise men have no right to intervene except masterly inactivity. 

Imaging all the souls waiting for a rebirth point keep on floating in space there will be War or Clash of souls. 

I hope you got the point,  I am driving at.

Each soul has his her own pathway of transition.

Not even so called God can intervene.

5. It either grabs the current body of existence (at least temporarily) with doctors’ help (resuscitation) or has no choice but to exit and enter its own individual path.

6. Mind can exist outside the body.

7. Body can exist without a mind (EBENs of extraterrestrial origin).

This is where the bio-engineering would create biological entities / agents that can reproduce identical biological robots.

The presumption here is that without a previous existence of the mind,          a new “soul” cannot be created de novo.

8. Highest level of mind’s existence is its detachment from the entanglement with the body (current or future existence).

9. There have to be many minds of existences and there cannot be “Unity of Mind” (as God or super agent of creation).

10. All of the above is not true.

11. Some are plausible and some are not.

What is the truth about mind, memory and consciousness?

Difficult to answer but let me try the plausible.

1.Consciousness or Awareness of the present.

In the case of the baby (above scenario) the consciousness was non-existent.

If it did, the baby would have chosen to live.

 

1. Mind

Mind is a powerful indestructible entity.

Mind has a powerful choice at the time of death.

It either goes into outer realm of existence in another birth (reincarnation) or grab onto the current body as long as possible.

I have a saying here.

The “Tunnel Vision” lets one previews the next birth.

If it is good the current beholder “lets go” and peacefully say "Good Bye”.

I haven’t found many in my life of experience except perhaps a few kids in death bed.

The nest scenario is the sight of terror having seen the lowly next round of birth.

They are the ones who hang onto the ventilator for ages and the Super Choice of Intensive Care Units, where every minute is money on the coffer for Private Nursing Homes.

Of course drain of resources for public service.

Above discussion is an eyeopener for critical care specialists.

They should know when to let go.

In this sense reincarnation is a “Soul Healing” doctrine.

Whether it is true or not is immaterial for one who has arrived at that juncture.

 

2. Memory

I have not located memory in any part of the brain and haven’t got a clue.

It got to be outside the brain.

Where?

I do not know

3. Dreams

It is my favorite. Apart from sleeping a lot now (I call it catch up sleep) dream is a fascination. I even think that dogs do dream.

Imagine an EBEN Robot working 24/7 schedule and a Ceylonese.

It is a habit for government servants and politicians to sleep while on duty or in the parliament.

They are paid for that (sleeping) and discover wakeful state after retirement when not having a regular income (bribes not available) and discover many poor people live a life of bare existence and sleepless nights.

Universal Drink Alcohol or Water?

Universal Drink Alcohol or Water?

This is a very easy question to answer.

It is certainly not water.

It is definitely alcohol.

I could not find an accurate figure for requirement of water for a day for an adult.

Nobody except some guys who are told by folklore that one should drink certain number of glasses of water, no adult has a clue or taught correct physiology in their entire life of intake of the water requirement.

We drink a substitute instead, tea or coffee or a beverage that has caffeine in it for central nervous system stimulation by habit.

Not for water requirement at all.

The water is the basis of cellular life.

Fortunately all food we eat has some water and their combustion produce water of metabolism and our kidney has the capacity to conserve when we are not drinking and when we sleep.

But I find man always (this applies to a certain percentage of women) have few liters of alcohol down diluted with some water.

What I find interesting is the minimum even in Bangladesh (country with lowest intake) is one litre of pure alcohol per person.

Which is a colossal.amount when multiplied by the total population. I find it interesting Iranians drink as much as Russians. It is said Belarusians drink the most but their officials figures are scaled down. Maldiwians drink more simply due to lack of water supply.

Come to Ceylonese they drink about 15 times as Bangladeshis and only about 5 times less than Russians.

I expected the Africans to drink more but it is true of only a few countries  like Zambia, Nigeria and South Africa.

Myanmar tops India and Indians drink (unlike in Tamilnadu films)  far less amount than Ceylonese.     My gut feeling was that rich and relatively happy countries consume more but they are less than Muslim countries put together and Malaysia is an exception.

I guessed Singaporean drinks more but I was wrong.

They have no time to drink.

Except New Zealand most of the Western counties drink an average more than Asians.              The Australians are heavy drinkers but it is coming down unlike in UK and USA.

My analysis is where there are dictators running the countries affairs, the alcohol consumption is high.

Myanmar is a classic example and some Latin American countries with dictators running the affairs are close allies of alcohol. A point what our Buddhist monks have failed to grasp is when there is a dictator running, the alcohol consumption goes up significantly and rapidly.

So if we want to drop alcohol consumption democracy should go hand in hand not other way round. If our alcohol consumption goes up by the next election do not blame the drinker but the ruler or rulers.

The corollary is for a dictator to succeed the country should streamline and jack up alcohol production at an affordable price, the variety does not matter but the production rate.

I gather Americans are drinking more after the election since the enthusiasm and the steam have run down and furloughing is through.

President Biden has to make sure alcohol production goes unhampered during his term office and he will be remembered for life if he cuts down taxes on alcohol in spite of medical advice and fail to keep 90% of the promises.

That also make Republicans to drink more and lose track of elections and for his successor to have a smooth riding.

If he follows doctors advice on alcohol and the numerous medical legislatures brought in front of him for approval, he is bound fail.

Just pretend you are absorbing them in good spirit.

See what happened to Donald Trump, mainly due to Anthony Fauci's insinuations.

Sleep and Dream for Married Couples

 Sleep and Dream for Married Couples

My recommendation of Sleep and Dream habits for Married Couples.

This applies only to married couples. 

The young lovers should do whatever dreaming they do at lib and they should not read this article which is very obnoxious when infatuated.

I’ll try to be as brief as possible since married people have no time for heavy reading but reflex action only.

My advice to a young couple on sleep and never on dreams   (since they are in a dream world which is going to end soon after the honeymoon).

In good old days my advice was one should match a couple with synchronised sleep.

Night sleeper who gets up early, late or indifferent.

Day time napper or of 8 hour 10 or 6 hour sleeper.

Idea was when two of them sleep which is synchronised, they get up together and the home and office work is synchronised.

The advantage is only to the employer and not to the married couple any way.

That is my new finding.

My old advice do not stand to reality of married life.

One should have two erratic sleepers so that when one dreams other one is up and doing home or office chores.

Married life is 24/7 schedule and never 9 to 5.

One has to be working while the other is having a nap unlike in office life where everybody has to work whether enough work is there or not.

My recent but not published or disclosed data suggest the only time married people have a respite is in their real dream world.

So enjoy them even if they are bitter to the opposite sex.

After all they are dreams.

Have you ever seen a couple who relate their dreams when woken up to the opposite spouse.

In my experience never.

The reality is that the dream is heavily edited to satisfy the opposite spouse. Usually all the dreams are    if not majority are obnoxious ones which even in reality extend from blue murder or downright slanderous.

If they truly relate these dreams the marriage won’t last even three months. Most of the breakup are due to recurrent incidences of these obnoxious dreams.

Never believe in the dreams. 

They a healthy escape room for humans.

 Even dogs and elephants seem to dream. 

Sometime they are part of learning episodes in real life.

One should never go to hypnotherapist for help and they (are the worse) will record them and use them to blackmail when his/her income is dwindling or volunteer to supply the information secretly to the defence lawyer of the other side for inappropriate black income.

This specially happens in Ceylon.

If these dreams recur it is alright to go to a divorce lawyer but never to a hypnotherapist.

Who knows one may take undue advantage.

One has to bear them, bite the teeth and boldly take them in, one go at a time, like a true and mature married man or woman. One should not give this information to doctors since they will give you a sleeping pill and inadvertently stop the only entertainment one has at his/her leisure time activity.

That is simply disaster.

If you want to prolong and succeed in marriage one has to edit every dream to suit the partner and occasionally relate them saying. I had a lovely dream about “You Know” with all the blah blah.

This has worked for me and I do not know about my wife.

All bad dreams are censored by default.

Now I write about dreams, nobody trust my dreams except Maha Brahma who never dreams in real life.

His hobby is to listen to my dreams and interpret them with his wisdom. If you have any bad dream about your spouse (not your secret lover) please post them under comments.

I may consider sending them to Maha’s perusal and interpretation.

I assure you he never keeps any record of them since I am the virtual computer registrar for Maha Brahma by appointment.

About Sleep and Dreams

 About Sleep and Dreams

I have taken sleep as a bit a routine and I did not write anything scientific or substantial. If you read the contents below it was always  not to the point but somewhat bizarre in attitude.

A bit of slant and satire invariably attached.

Simply because sleep was not a problem for me.

I can sleep standing on a bus plying to Colombo but awake quickly enough to grab the hand of                a pickpocket. Equally, I can keep up awake with only coffee and tea in between for 48 hours. This was achieved doing one in two rota in United Kingdom with Barnsley with continuous stream of sick kids.

I took a challenge to keep up 48 hours.

I kept up 48 hours without sleeping with the challengers watching me. Funnily, the sleep watchers, could not keep up with me and they went into snooze mode while observing me. Then of course, I go into the sleep mode immediately after and  I won’t wake up until I had recovered fully, the lost sleep time. My sleep cycle can adjust according to the needs. The bottom line is nobody tries to wake me up while I am in sleep mode,that includes my mother.

I dip into deep sleep without an intervention.

Nutty things to do when one is young but I won’t recommend the above to any living soul. Thankfully, those days I did not have a car to drive.     Car accidents are common when one breaks sleep.     Best solution is to stop the car and have a quick nap.        I can switch my wake and sleep cycle almost at will and I believed that others have the same ability.

I am proved wrong.

Let me expand.

1. I have never given a sleeping tablet to a patient for dropping to sleep except pre-medication for major surgery.

2. I am very liberal on pain relief. That is of course, if one is not a drug addict. The proper practice of medicine solely relies on taking grief and pain factor away from patients.

3. Sleeping tablets are lethal and one gets addicted to the drug within 48 hours. The sleep one gets with these tablets is not normal and they upset the diurnal rhythm up to two weeks.

It is the melatonin that keep our sleep cycle going on daily basis.

4. One needs minimum of 4 hours of deep sleep.

Buddha was an example who slept only 4 hours and if not occupied, he was in meditative bliss and wide awake.

5. An average adult (children needs more sleep) needs about 8 hours of sleep, not necessarily continuous, that is in one go.

One can have it in two slots which is much better, if one can afford it.

6. The bottom line is how to get the most needed 4 hours of deep sleep.

The most important memory record of newly learnt material is laid down in deep sleep.

This I did not know until my retirement as a medical guy.

7. Many does not have the ability to roll into this mode, simply because of the inhibitions that precedes the rest or the night cap.

8. Even if, one is in bed for 10 hours and not got the required 4 hours of deep sleep, he/she feels sleepy during waking hours, the next day.

How to avoid it?

9. Few guide lines but none might work at the beginning but with perseverance one can achieve the target of 4 hours of deep sleep unless one’s physiology is deranged or has chronic painful illness.

This advice is for one who has no other disability including major depressive illness or manic depression.

10. One should retire to bed only when the days work is finished and not before.

Similarly, one should have a mental sketch of what has to be done the next day, certainly not the next week.

11. Humans work on 24 to 28 hour cycles not less. This is unfortunately little longer than the earth cycle.

This is why finishing the days major chores is of paramount importance.

Do not leave the work for the weekends.

In other words “Moment Meditation” (my coining) in practice.

Do the things as they ought to be, at the right time.

No procrastination.

The principle here is one should not detail more work than one can accomplish in day time hours.

Nothing pending at bed time.

If you practice this dropping to sleep is spontaneous. More than likely you get to the deep sleep mode quickly.

It is the mental anxiety that keeps you awake the first few moments in bed.

12. When you wake up (unless you are retired and nothing else to do (next morning) in the morning do not deliberate and stay in bed for few more minutes.

Your sleep is already interrupted by normal biological rhythm or the alarm.

You cannot go back to good sleep again.

Wake up and if you are bit early tidy up the morning work.

13. Mind you when you do not have a good sleep the first casualty is your Memory.

You forget things.

14. Let me now dispense the factors that hinder your sleep.

Number one is excess of coffee.

No coffee at bedtime.

It is an addiction.

Number two is tea.

Both items impair your sleep and more importantly dropping to sleep is delayed.

Others includes heavy rice meal and alcohol.

Both items cause mid night hyopglycaemia and interrupt your sleep when deep sleep is about to commence. In our set up rice and alcohol are culprits of breaking the sleep pattern.

Not only that both items cause regurgitation of stomach contents while flat on bed. They cause acid irritation, since starch and alcohol cannot neutralise acid secretions.

Light beefy (not necessarily beef but soya meat, egg omelette would do) meal and milk are the antidotes not tea or coffee.

If tea is desired add lot of milk.

Adding milk has no effect on coffee.

So take the mental and physical hindrances to your sleep as (sleep deprivers) cardinal sins.

15. I have not talked about the bed, the room, the temperature, humidity and lightnings (they are individual variables), but your cellphone is the nastiest invention of modern times.

Switch it off first, before preparation for sleep.

I do not have one. I am fully retired.

16. Watching TV (passive attention) late at night (unless the next morning is an off day or holiday) is another reason for interrupted sleep and bizarre dreams. Unlike natural vision digital flashes of TV images irritate the  brain.

What one need is brain getting ready to relax and then sleep mode eventually.

TV is not good for the health.

17. Computer (not cellphone) with a keyboard (you can hit the keys hard as they were made of steel)    is a good anxiety reliever before bedtime. My routine is to look at the emails and deleting the junk.

That routine start always after mid night.

Looking at your email is the most boring activity.

So boring you feel like dropping to sleep on your keyboard.

The advantage is that you save lot of time,       the next morning. Nobody expects (only paranoid person would take emails seriously now) you to answer emails as they come.

You must be liberal with Delete action.

It should be like “the knee jerk reaction”.

This is why I prefer blogging (hate Facebook and social media) to social media. Blogging is most of the time constructive but social media interactive, irritate inner feeling and proactive.

Fortunately YouTube has taken taken this burden away from us.

Who cares if you had million hits?

Is it like an orgasm?

I doubt it has any impact.

18. Dreams are vital ingredients of your sleep and I have enlarged upon them with my own dreams.

Or you read my books on Dreams available at Amazon’s.

Sinhalaya Killing Sinhala Language

Let me start with Indika Thotawatta.

That is the guy I love to listen to, even though I do not agree with his astrological predictions. 

He is one who loves mother Lanka and the Sinhalan Language.

Hats off to him for his honorable approach.

I am very bad in my Sinhala and I always pick one or two Sinhala Gems from him.

Chapa Bandara can handle the Sinhala language in a respectable way. 

I do not know his political ambitions but I wish him well.

My current attempt is to promote Dhamma not Buddhism. 

I use English for that purpose and not raw Sinhala. 

Sinhala sometimes tend to devalue Pali of it's substantial meanings. 

This is what that Kiribathgoda Goiya is trying to do. 

DO NOT listen to him. 

He is an antithesis to Dhamma.

One I love to hate is Chamuditha.

Plane and simple his aggressive behaviour is unbecoming. 

I used to switch off the TV whenever he is on TV in any program.

I am away from our land and I am currently not subjected to his vituperations.

I have no problem of switching him off. 

He is a politically ambitions guy. 

He should not be in parliament by any imagination.

This Sepala Guy is a simple "Potha Gura" and had no substance behing him. 

A pretentious guy by all measures.

His objective is to destroy Dhamma. 

He can never achieve that. 

He will be in Hell, no sooner he leaves his present human domain. 

He has no recuperation at all. 

I leave it at that. 

I have no problem he is becoming a slimy political animal. 

What I really hate is, his transliteration. 

This is a term, I helped in coining when trying to translate Medical Terms to Sinhala. 

I used to tell my professor who had no knowledge of Sinhala, it is far better to use the original English term and get the students to learn terminology rather than the language.

Guys come to University not knowing how to define the term definition.

I was later recruited simply (my putative Sinhala ability) because of me helping the Professor of Biochemistry (I was pretty good in Biochemistry) to translate Multiple Choice Questions as a Medical Student (as a Senior Student of the 4th year.

Getting into even Seconded Post was extremely difficult those days. 

I cut my teeth, then and there and never looked back. 

Over time, I improved my English and now I start to forget lot of Sinhala Words in Common use, especially food items.

I said Halapath to Halapa.

I was teased appropriately and my current ploy is to keep my mouth shut.

Main Objective

This piece is about the YouTube guys who abuse Sinhala, especially guys who use foul language. 

One must not subscribe to them and they would peter out, naturally.

First of all the guys who destroyed Sinhala language were J.V.P. guys.

Just look at some of their wall paper posts in 1970 and 1988/89.

Marapiya

Kotapiya

Nathi Banga Karapiya

Nathi Banga Wewa

These NPP guys talking lush and posh language NOW, is simply a whitewash and just to fool the masses. 

That was their political motive which they successfully achieved.

I hate the guys who use Umba and Umbalata for Oba or Obata. 

It is nauseating to me coming from a Catholic school where we were not allowed to use them.

We had a very good Sinhala Teacher named Mr. Wickramadinghe. 

He taught us from Kumarodaya and his teaching of grammar was excellent.

No hanky panky.

Precise.

He was with us for only 3 months.

When he came in he wore a National Dress. 

After three months of learning English he switched to  a trouser. 

That had a lasting impact on me and I concentrated on English. 

By the age of 16 my English was very much refined.

Never a Single vulgar term in my school life. 

The other guys liberally used foul language but they were automatically shunned. 

It is opposite now. 

Vulgar vernacular is promoted as opposed to Sweet Words.

We used I, you and we.

Mr. Mrs and Madam for younger females.

This Athi Garu, Vishishta and Uthumanani came with Rajapaksa Regime.

I used to say Mr. Rajapaksa, Mr. Wicramasighe and Mrs. Chandrika.

Please leave it at that.

None of them were great or National Heroes.

Quite the opposite but shameful characters.
