Call me ignorant... But the Buddha came to resolve a conflict between the Yakkas and Naghas


The first visit of the Buddha (Sakiya Munivar in Tamil) was to Mahiyangane area where Yakkhas lived. The Sinhala Mahavamsa Buddha did not try to win them over with his compassion as the original Buddha did in similar circumstances. He TERRORIZED the Yakkhas by MANIPULATING natural phenomena. The Yakkhas appealed to the Buddha NOT TO TERRORIZE them if they were not harmed, they would vacate the land for the Buddha. The Mahavamsa Buddha seems to have taken the innate evil character of the Sinhalese.

The second visit of the Buddha was to Nagadipa, now identified with northern Tamil part of Lanka. Two Naga princes were about to fight fiercely for a gem set throne and bloodshed was imminent. The Buddha made his visit to prevent bloodshed. There too, the Buddha seems to have used TERRORIST methods of MANIPULATING natural phenomena to frighten the princes so that they themselves offered the Buddha the throne out of fear. The Mahavamsa portrayal of the Buddha's second visit also shows that the Buddha had been brought down to a level which the Sinhalas could understand.


they would vacate the land for the Buddha.


This is what the Sinhala Mahavamsa says, why the Buddha wanted the land of the indigenous people, after all he was just a visitor.

The Sinhala Mahavansa already says the Buddha chose Sri Lanka for prince Vijaya and his descendants. It means, the Sinhala Buddha stole the land from the indigenous people and gave it to the descendants of Vijaya - the Sinhalese. :))

Even the Mahavamsa Buddha turned out to be a landgrabbing invader. The Buddha had been brought down to a level which the Sinhalas could understand. :))

Thivya...
what you are doing is distorting the facts (impossible for a minor league intellect) of one of the greatest men who ever lived. A teaching embraced by millions all around the world and most probably the only religion/teaching/philosophy that will survive the next 1000 years.
The Book you read to get these facts is the Eelam version of Mein Kampf and written exclusively with minor league intellects in mind...

During Buddhas times Pakistan was called Ghandar Deshaya
Iran / Iraq called Yonakapuraya. In Mahawansaya it documents 500 enlightened Arabic monks comming from Iran to attend Ruwanweliseya openings seramony.

Sri lanka was called Puna Seehale ( Purana Sinhalaya) Ancient Sinhalay it proves that even at that time Sinhala civilization was lasting since pre historic times.

Thats why Buddha confidently said Buddhism will eb safegurded not in India but In Sinhala Land. He further said it will be so for 5000 years.

Soo peelamists relax and come back after 2500 years.
Sinhal Buddhist civilization will last.
What the Buddha taught has never been proven wrong even by Sience.

On teh contrary Bible believes earth is 6000 years, accordingly Dinossaures were roaming 4000 years ago.

I also admire the Buddha and his teachings but I hate the Sinhala Buddhism and their racist Buddhit monks. All I am saying is, The Sinhala Mahavamsa Buddha seems to have taken the innate evil character of the Sinhalese and the Buddha had been brought down to a level which the Sinhalas could understand.

Perhaps the Sinhalese became like that due to generations of invasions, oppressions... first by the Indians, then by the Europeans... so they may have evolved in to a fierce race that has little tolerance for anyone not 'Sinhalese'.

By the way Do all Tamils come from veluppilai Prabakaran ????


Prabhakarna's forefather arrived in Sri Lanka less than 200 years ago.

Vast majority of Tamils are migrants since 13th century specially Vellalars.

What is certain is that the Sri Lankan Tamil Vellalar identity rose amongst those who migrated from neibhouring Tamil Nadu state in India since the 13the century. According to Yalpana Vaipava Malai, a native chronicle that documents the history of the rise and fall of the Jaffna kingdom in Sri Lanka from the 12th century to the 16th, many Vellalar chiefs from Tamil Nadu were responsible for organizing settlement groups from India in to the Jaffna peninsula. Most of these pioneering families had titles associted with clan chiefs such as Rayan, Thevan, Mudali, Mappanan and Malavan.

During the Jaffna kingdom period and the following colonial period since the 16 the century, Vellala chiefs were in constant struggle for supremacy with another now extinct caste called Madapalli. The kings belonging to the Arya Chakaravarthi dynasty would appoint leaders from both the factions to maintain peace in the kingdom.

According Bryan Pfaffenberger, an American anthroplogist who has studied the community in detail, the rise to complete dominance by the Vellala elites began with the capture of Portuguese holdings in Sri Lanka by the Dutch. The Dutch ineterpreted the local laws later codified as Thesavalamai as allowing Vellala chiefs to own slaves. Thus empowered many tobacco plantations were created by the Vellala chiefs with the help of imorted Indian workers from the Pallar caste who were held as slaves. This new found wealth enabled the Vellalas in general to morph into a dominant land owning elite with ritual and political control.

Eventually their portion of the total Tamil population of the densely populated Jaffna peninsula rose from a mere 8% to over 50%. Upwardly mobile families of people belonging to other castes also eventually associated them with the Velllala identity according the priniples of Sanskritisation.

Mahawansayam:

There are no Buddhists in Tamil Eelam. The so-called called 'Puna Seehale' that Buddha talked, according to you, then must be Sinhariztan (which is the old Ceylon minus Tamil Eelam), as Buddhism only remains there.

So, Buddha apparently know the coming of Tamil Eelam!

Our friendship with individual Sinhalese cannot be used to measure the collective evil nature of the Sinhala race. Did you forget that the own friends and coworker Sinhalese killed the Tamils during the racial riots from 1956?

Many Sinhalese have Tamil friends and some even related to Tamils by marriage, then how will you describe the voting pattern of Sinhalese. In Sri Lanka, the Tamils don't elect the governments only the Sinhalese do. The Sinhalese always elect the party with the most anti Tamil racist platform in that particular election to the power.

The extent of Sinhala hatred against Tamils is so deep rooted, the Tamils could never ever live in peace and dignity with the Sinhalese.
