This man defends himself like a layman .These are not the words of an Arahath. The new world so called Arahaths promoted by women.

I am very much in line with the monk, Buddhism in current situation must offer comfort to all, Sri Lanka has the largest society of hypocrites in the world and in my estimation, 90% of Buddhist consume fish or meat. This is a much larger argument if you need to address. But when these proteins are served at an ashram, people have an issue. If these media personal are Buddhist, I want to know their status in fish/meat consumption? I am a Buddhist and eat fish/meat in moderation.

As a laymen reached end of my life time bare bit of experience and knowledge to understand people by their principles, behavior, personality etc. I have watched this person on the TV and listened to what he preach. I would like to refrain from calling him a Bikku, because he is not impressive to me as a holy person.My main concern is about consumption of animal flesh what we commonly call meat. Fish is also flesh of an animal, therefore there is no difference whether you eat land animals or the ones live in water. In his interview he has mentioned that he does not kill animals for his consumption therefore it is acceptable for him to eat meat. This person supposed to be having some academic knowledge cannot understand the fact that if he gives the message to his dayakas that he would not consume animal flesh, then they would not offer meat at all. Dayakas must understand that when purchase meat that create a demand for meat and supplier kill animals according to the demand.

This so called monk is unbelievable, and has an uncanny resemblance to the infamous Buddharakkitha thera from the 1960s, see the image at the link below:http://sangam.org/2009/10/Bandaranaike_Assassination_3.php?uid=3710

Eating, drinking and married life are normal part of human life. This is the reproduction system of whole universe. Even Siddhartha was born for married parents, and he, himself had a married life. So any ideology against human nature is not practicable, and it is against the universal system.
