Greetings Sri Lankans...How are we today...Now that everyone knows Kilinochchi is no longer an issue,looks like LNP has to settle for slow threads lately...:-))
Yes, what has happened to that town eh?
a mystery.. eh?
What ever that may be... Now some LNPers are taking about cohabitation of future generation in sri lanka, nation building etc etc. I do not even hear words like unitary, united or federal. :-D
A new peace dove called 'Yarlan' has arrived to LNP with another set of great ideas.
There is hope after all. Thanks for everyone who shared his (or her) own personal tragedies. This war has touched all of us. Soon, there will be a forum set up for Sri Lankans to specifically share their stories. The Tamils and Sinhalese should come to know about each other s sad and often very tragic experiences that they had to go through. When they do only will they realize how much they have in common.
What a tragedy. We have lost 25 years. An entire generation of Tamil and Sinhala youths wasted in internecine warfare. Now we have to act. So, there won t another generation of our children facing death and injury in battle fields suitable for our ancient kings.
Before the dawn of New Year, I will reveal my true identity. There waits the real shocker for many.

Sri Lanka should commit itself to the proliferation of cluster munitions. This would only be possible if countries that provide assistance to Sri Lankan government make it a condition,' said Gajendran MP, who is currently in France in a visit to Europe to meet the diplomatic community
One has to go direct to the people. International Govenrments are often ready to call us 'terrorists'. But when we call them racists - they protest. Each one as per their beliefs. It's time Tamils abroad participated more actively in the elimination of racial discrimination in the countries that is now home to them. Then that karma will automatically support us in Sri Lanka.
Here is an example:
The Hon Nathan Rees, MP
Premier New South Wales
Parliament House
Macquarie St
Sydney 2000
03 December 2008
Dear Mr. Rees,
NSW Public Service's Terrorism Karma
I write in relation to the position of Business Resource Manager, Strategic Communications and Government Advertising and the response from the Department of Commerce when I made the inquiry that I have not made it to the shortlist . I was shocked to hear that because of my outstanding work for that Unit. In fact an independent assessment would confirm that I developed that position. I do not intend going into details. You have access to all the records. When I asked as to why I did not make it to the shortlist the response was that there were many applicants who were stronger. I asked for a contact person to speak to and I was told that there were none. I said we used to provide that opportunity and I was informed that it did not exist any more. If that is the case, this position of Business Resource Manager is a waste of Public Funds.
Mr. Rees, I am a true worker and I worked hard to change those units into business units. My application would confirm the high level of appreciation I earned with them. Likewise at the University of NSW. But all that is forgotten when we apply without any direct influence.
Not one of the Selection Criteria could be tested through objective measures. Hence the recruitment could only be Subjective. This is alright if the recruitment is being performed on majority vote basis, like in elections and not on calculated administrative basis.
A position such as this, needs to be shaped at least 50% by the successful candidate. That is a requirement in competitive business. That s when the customer is right principle of democracy would prevail.
I know that this is unjust. I know that all responsible, including the Minister concerned will get the return karma. Last Tuesday, I wrote as follows in an open email discussion:
Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2008 2:22 PM
Subject: Did Coogee MP on UNSW Council contribute to Bali bombing?
Mr. Xxxxx,
I sometimes wonder painfully whether the failure of our local MP for Coogee who was part of the UNSW Governing Council and who wrote to me words to the effect that I was 'showing off' contributed to Coogee's share of Bali bombing. I am a Hindu and share common faith with the people of Bali. I believe if I had felt strongly that I belonged through Coogee - Coogee would have been protected from any attacks by common Balinese. Likewise from any attacks from those of Sri Lankan origin.
Mr. Rees, I now fully believe that there is a substantive connection between the pain and loss suffered by migrants who feel Australian and the attacks by those who share common faith with them. If our pain and loss were not genuine then they would not connect to those who genuinely believe that they have a just cause in attacking Australians. But when it is genuine it connects automatically. Without that genuine loss, the Tamil Tigers would not have lasted this long and they would not have been offered political support from other Nations. Until we substantively connect to them, we do not know whether or not they genuinely believe or not.
Premier, I recently wrote to our Prime Minister, in relation to the Mumbai attacks:
There was a free nail on the wall facing Coogee Beach. Shridi on Rock seated Himself looking like Shiva the Destroyer of body consciousness/Conqueror of fear of Death. He chose that spot . (It happened ) - to reflect the beauty of Coogee Beach - by night with its glowing lamps silently guarding our shores natural rocks carrying with dignity the honorable reality of death in the stillness of Truth,
and by day - Restless waves coming back again and again to the shore sometimes high and excited to defend and occasionally to kill but mostly quietly caressing and comforting like a nurturing mother hugging her crying babies in the fullness of Love.
To my mind this ought to be enough to communicate to you that I feel Australian.
I have been helped to conquer fear of death. I fully believe that I would not experience the pain of unjust death. My search for Truth has helped me not have anxiety for myself and my family, over failures like the above. But I do feel for fellow Australians who keep ignoring the warning signals.
We do appreciate that you cannot get it perfect overnight. But it is important to at least include us in seeking solutions.
If you are not able to use Objectively Measurable merit basis, the next best is to use Subjective basis on the basis of common profession, activity, experience in other words those who have already made it in an identical position. If you cannot find enough persons the recruitment ought to be through majority vote by all those who have direct and indirect dealings with the position.
The current way of Recruitment is enormous waste of Public Resources not only in the custody of the government but also for the applicants. If indeed there were many applicants who scored better than I on the basis of Selection Criteria, then you ought to have no difficulty whatsoever in sending my marks against the last one on the shortlist. When you do not have such structures in place, the only form that I see is Racial Discrimination, on the basis of what I have experienced at the workplace. Given that there is no official definition of racial discrimination, we are entitled to use our own measures and when we are genuine in applying our own definition it is the right one in the court of Natural Justice. If we do believe that there is racial discrimination we must find a way to define it or accept the belief of the greater participant as evidence of why. In a democracy the victim has equal right to claim why s/he thinks s/he has suffered, as the perpetrator who fails to produce objective evidence at the time of action. Otherwise we must repeal all anti discrimination legislations to prevent more loss and pain for those already suffering seeking relief through them due to their genuine belief that they work.
Premier, every person who believes s/he qualifies as per Selection Criteria, but fails to win the position and hurts because of it, contributes to return karma for all concerned including the government in common. Every fellow Australian who makes up through positive ways each one as per their own capacity reverses that negative karma. As you sow, so shall you reap. Without this law of Nature there is nothing called faith or even logic and most importantly no majority vote power. We would just be trading at the seen level.
Hence, if you have faith in Natural Justice, please do something to right the wrongs that are brought to your attention. Once you do all within your power, you have cleared the problem at your level. Unless therefore a victim has invested at a higher level than the Premier, the karma would be diffused. Doing all you can includes you becoming humble enough to pay out of your pocket money and status until you share the pain and loss in common with the victim. Then we own in common and there is no room for revenge by that person and/or others connected to that person through common faith.
This is what I tried to do with the University of NSW when I did not get the position of Assistant Accountant after being recognized for high performance in similar positions in that very same Medical Faculty. The NSW Police were called in to arrest me for Trespass, I was labeled a mentally ill person and later your Sheriff s Officers enforced entry into our Coogee Home Unit to remove family assets. Only we, our family and most of all myself know the difficulties we went through to secure that home for ourselves in that predominantly white Australian suburb. We forewent the comfort of Homebush - the suburb of the Tamil Community to belong as Australians. Hence the terrorism karma.
Homeland is most powerful Premier. Where we feel natural is our home. Anyone who interferes with that home feeling is automatically earning punishment through Natural Justice. My workplace has long been home to me. This includes NSW Government Information and Advertising, the University of NSW and NSW Health. To the extent I share my discoveries naturally with you your office is also my home.
The attached copy of letter to the Hon Julia Gillard, shows some of the connections. If we recruit well through appropriate common values, we would not need strong unfair dismissal laws and the resources allocated towards them.
Yours sincerely
Gaja Lakshmi Paramasivam
