Saving Mother Lanka

Dear Friends

Let us join hands to Save Mother Lanka

Let us look back ...
1970s  we lived in fear due to the JVP
1980s  For close to 30 yrs we lived in fear due to the Tamil Tigers
2009  A short reprieve and a taste of true freedom
But this was short lived ...
2016  Major political turmoil
2019  Another bombing - this time from a Muslim terror group


Are you seeing a pattern here ?




As practicing Buddhists we believe in Karma
WE are suffering
Why ?
Due to OUR bad Karma


So what is the solution ?
We need to create more GOOD Karma

So, how do we do that ?

Definitely not by spreading fear or hatred
Nor by blaming others





But by spreading Metta and taking a personal pledge to be a better person ...

So let us JOIN HANDS and focus on creating GOOD KARMA



Step 1


Take a PERSONAL PLEDGE to observe the 5 precepts
I will not kill
I will not steal
I will not misbehave sexually
I will not lie
I will avoid intoxicants 


Step 2


There is a lot of scientific data that shows Chanting Pirith calms our brain.
Let us ALL Chant Pirith - every home, every Buddhist temple 
7 pm - all over the world

Step 3

Spread Loving Kindness
Let us take 1 minute during the day to
Wish our selves well
Wish everyone in Sri Lanka well
And wish every living being in the world well



This is how we can Save Mother Lanka
