Vesak Day protest..

After following my years of extensive research on Buddhist Philosophy i can say that Buddha was a bad (good in organisational terms-bad for us the worker/peasant class) manager..he was more of a Corporate oriented guy and definitely not a Sri Lankan Civil Servant type... that's why he had his Birth Day, Graduation Day ( the day he got conferred as Buddha following years of applied field research..) and then Passing Away Day..[(we don't celebrate that..No,in fact we kinda do..but its called 'Mala Batha' having an early dinner at the dead man's house talking about what a great guy (or gal) the dead person was etc.. followed by few drinks behind some guys car..)] on the same day..

Imagine in Sri Lankan standers, had Buddha being a resident of Sri Lanka, we could have had 3(+) public holidays (+ 'day after' public holiday too) to celebrate each occasion and not a single day as it is now!!! that's why I'm calling for a protest.

We, majority Sri Lankan Buddhists tend to take Buddha as one of our own ,though he is a Nepali citizen by birth who later took residency in India for career reasons we could say he is Sri Lankan too, considering the number of trips he made to Sri Lanka and also his involvement in domestic issues and also the impact of his teachings on the Sri Lankan society itself!

So, going with above analysis i think its safe to say Buddha later on took up Sri Lankan citizenship and should consider to be full blooded Sri Lankan,hence the Mahinda Raj (or Government of Mahinda in other words..yes, i will explain my new political dictum  of 'Mahinda Raj' in a latter post) must split Vesak into 3 separate events and thus, declare public holidays to correspond to that.

That's about it for now.. i must attend to more temporal issues today so i stop now but the comments box is open for discussion and i will further explain my findings if such is required. 

one other thing: 

in death life begins,life ends in death,

turning by one's deeds done,

whetted by desires of lust and hatred,

pinned to our illusions we evolve,

unceasingly,meaninglessly,

only by reflection we know,

catching glimpses of life's process,

by insight illusions we break,

by wisdom we disentangle our selves,

from our own spun webs,

Said Buddha..
