What is he trying to achieve now, I have some suspicions on his intentions.

During the British colonial period, scientists established that the ‘sacred tooth’ was not a human tooth, but that of a feline predator. So why the fuss?

Sir it is a meaningful move. Thus it is highly commendable and so blessed. Simultaneously to this great exposition. If there is a possibility to organise specific religious programme under patronage of the all religious leaders who are representing various religious ideologies will be more beneficial in order to mitigate the whining as well as the mourning of the opposition parliamentarians

It’s high time, we once and for all confirm the origin of the tooth. We should call world renounced dental expert to confirm or deny the origin of this tooth. If it’s not a human tooth, what’s the point in worshipping an animal tooth and deceiving the public. We should not bury our heads in the sand, refusing any investigations. Certainly some people will object. No one wishes to ruffle the feathers.

Here we go again using religion to influence the public at the LG polls. This shows NPP is unsure about their victory at the LG polls. So what's the difference between NPP and the previous governments?. Where's the so called system change?. As usual our voters get hoodwinked all the time.

Apparently, the President have sought divine intervention to rescue his hocus pocus government.

This is a very good deed. Queues will be very long with the divotees. If water and some refreshments can be provided it will be good as many will travel from distant towns. Have a separate queue for those who buy a ticket at a fixed price, say about Rs 2500 or more for a person. Use this money to provide refereshments for the divotees. If any balance is left it can be for the Maligawa. If there is a shorfall use from the donations to the maligawa. After all the public donations must not be for the Diyawadana Nilame and others to share and the Public Trustee must use that money for the Maligawa improvements and other Buddhist work

Our ex-rulers, otherwise very busy? Monday, 24 February 2025 07:10 AM

"Exposition of the Sacred Tooth Relic has not been organized for 16 years." Our Ex-rulers and their ministers, were they otherwise occupied with making the nation self sufficient? Were they so busy, that they forgot even the elections?

it looks like, like yaha palanaya or good governance, the Renaissance continues to be rhetoric, if not becoming a pipe dream.

Before the Exposition of the Tooth Relic, we need to know about the Easter Sunday Attacks. Nothing in the air despite the pre election promises. Are these cheap arrangements a way of distraction? Maybe the plan is to do this to co-incide with April 21st 2025?

Haven't you seen an Elephant tusk before ? Why do you think there has never been any forensic testing ?

Nothing will happen to the good of the Country, Society or toothless economy. Stop abusing the Dharma what has been the myth over centuries from Lumbini to Kandy and over 6 decades of evil from Rome to Charleston where latter is the abusive global religion.
