Lord Buddha never afraid of any catastrophe, he had the eternal self belief and energy to nullify any force of malice that comes his way. |

oh yes, from Johannes Strauss. That's calm and collective.
Same with Hendel's 'Largo'? Have you heard that? |

Cobra,
Have you been to UK? If not you may not heard perhaps.
We have a place called 'Amaravati Buddhist Monastery' in Hemel Hempstead, hertfordshire very famous Buddhist centre where Buddhism is practised by all sort of priests and they particularly come there to find solace in the face of Buddhism. The chief incumbent is an American named Ajahn Sumedho. They are all vegetarians and they have very good programmes to enlighten those who know next to nothing of Buddhism. In fact they have free Buddhist books distributed.
We sometimes go there and meditate and follow Buddhism strictly also kindly help to cook other people who come there too.

He tried the 'Nalagiri' atha but failed, then tried to kill him with the rock but failed.
His (Buddha's) 'thaadi gunaya' led the folks stonified.

Angry villagers threaten to take tough action
the action should be one of below ,
1. protest against state in efficiency
2. join opposite and work for intelligence agency
the choice is yours , if you are smart , make fast decision than depending on power hungry MR government.
Correction :
Power-hungry family business , the fact is , GOSL polity is very much family business now |

Kamani,
It is absolutely a wonderful place. I used to visit Amarawathi very frequently. Unfortunately I couldn't go there since last December. One of the mini Buddha statues there in Amarawathi is very similar to Thiriyay Buddha image, destroyed by the LTTE sometime back. Whenever I go there this incident comes to my mind and disturbs me very much. |
