• Human Beings are Destroying Life on Earth but Deluding Ourselves that We are Not January 17, 2019
  by Robert J. BurrowesIt is easy to identify the ongoing and endless violence being inflicted on life on Earth. This ranges from the vast multiplicity of assaults inflicted on our children and the biosphere to the endless wars and other military violence as well as the grotesque exploitation of many peoples living in Africa, Asia and Central/South America. Bu […]

• Meditation and Consciousness January 17, 2019
  by Ruwan M Jayatunge M.D.The word ‘conciousness’ is derived from Latin, having its roots in conscio formed by the coalescence of cum meaning ‘with’ and scio meaning ‘know’ (Sousa, 2013). Consciousness has been one of the most important and tantalizing issues ever since the origin of philosophy and medicine (Facco et al., 2017). The understanding of conscious […]

• It's healthy to retire the braggadocio January 10, 2019
  Life has a way of 'pushing-down' the bragPeople have egos. That’s a given. Some egos are massive, others are so tiny that they even seem non-existent. Some people are humble while others don’t seem to possess even an iota of humility. Some brag, others don’t. Some take criticism in the right spirit, some take umbrage and harbor grudges.  The lives […]

• The March of Folly 46 – Return to the East December 16, 2018
  And one always worried on the long stretches between checkpoints on the Amparai-Mahaoya road even after it had been opened to traffic. Memories of the Aranthalawa massacre, when 30 novice monks were dragged off a bus and killed, along with some older monks and laymen, always recurred as one passed the area, even though this had taken place before the Indo-La […]

• The March of Folly 45 – Ranil’s treacherous behaviour December 8, 2018
  .. understandable in someone who obviously has no qualms about the #SriLanka people being punished so he and his party can continue in clover. And given the enormity of the bond scam, it is sad that President Sirisena is parroting ..

• The March of Folly 44 – A disgraceful Attorney General November 23, 2018
  President Sirisena’s query from the Supreme Court as to whether he was entitled to a six year term was both sad and silly. It was sad because it suggested that he was anxious to go on for longer than the reduced period laid down in the 19th Amendment for which he had claimed great credit. […]

• The March of Folly 43 – Ranjith Atapattu November 17, 2018
  It was profoundly ironic that the funeral of Ranjith Atapattu took place the day after the appalling spectacle in Parliament. My attention was drawn to this by the former Secretary General, Nihal Seneviratne, the launch of whose book about better days was one of the last public events that Ranjith had attended. I saw Nihal […]

• The March of Folly 42 – Understanding why Mahinda Rajapaksa was defeated: the bad ‘cronies’ August 31, 2018
  I looked last week at Nalaka Godahewa’s account of why Mahinda Rajapaksa lost, which he attributed to the excessive influence of eight people who ‘were not listening to the voices of the grassroots anymore’. Though an intelligent analysis of some aspects of the last years of the Rajapaksa administration, the article failed to distinguish between […]

• The March of Folly 41 – Understanding why Mahinda Rajapaksa was defeated: the good ‘cronies’ August 28, 2018
  ‘Surrounded by cronies and not listening to those who mattered’ is the explanation Nalaka Godahewa gave in an article in Ceylon Today on why Mahinda Rajapaksa lost. I found it most interesting, with added value from the fact that Godahewa was close to the former President, and indeed came to his rescue when both Indrani […]

• The March of Folly 40 – The multiple betrayals of Maithripala Sirisena June 24, 2018
  It is true that many of the problems he now faces he brought on himself, but this was because of weakness, and because he relied on those who had no interest in ensuring he succeeded.

• The March of Folly 39 – Old wine in new bottles June 19, 2018
  ... had not been consulted in the planning, and were angry they could not put forward projects catering to their own agendas. An alternative view was that Basil wanted to control the funds himself and did not like the decentralized manner in which the project had been conceived.

• The March of Folly 38 – Marapana as compromise Prime Minister June 16, 2018
  I do not suppose the President has any illusions about Ranil’s shelf life being over, but obviously he is frightened to act, in case he finds himself without a parliamentary majority.

• The March of Folly 37 – Arbitrary detention unquestioned June 12, 2018
