I'm a guy without a plan.
Therefore I remain silent in reality.
Some find it weird but I prefer to observe things in silence.
Social media may be my voice but I'm not a keyboard hero.
I've got a few friends 'cause I believe in quality over quantity.
I respect the deserving ones.
Nowadays, light patterns of Vesak pandals are changing too fast (as a result of moving to LED use), and Vesak lanterns are spinning too fast. The graceful illumination and spinning is slowly fading away. #Vesak#led
Just as much as the police are keen on raiding those social media-organised parties for drugs, they should raid prominent nightclubs in Colombo too. From the stories I’ve heard from people who go clubbing there, there’s a lot more than booze, music, & dancing

I have been to the newly renovated #MajesticCineplex and watched a movie in their new Superior cinema. I must say the interior of that cinema is awful, and they could have done a better job. That particular cinema felt like something they have already had before the renovation.
-Restrictions based on clothing, where attire is used as a basis for exclusion or is deemed a sign of disrespect. (Lord Buddha didn't block naked Patachara from approaching him)
Discriminatory rules imposed by some #lka Buddhist institutions, despite Lord Buddha's teachings of compassion & equality towards all people:
-Women aren't permitted to enter the upper terrace of the Sri Maha Bodhi or the Sacred Tooth Relic chamber. (all genders met lord Buddha)
I don’t know how people enjoy songs sung by artists like #BadBunny. They sound like essay-reading. I know there are different music genres but those songs in particular are ugly as hell. If that’s called talent & deserving of awards then #Yohani although she’s bad deserves more.
Maharagama Vesak pandal was going through a lot of boo-boos on the 1st day. Half of it was not lit, not even the lights that illuminate illustrations. Some parts didn’t have matching lights/patterns that were supposed to illuminate along with those in the same/similar section(s).
#Dansel to avoid this #Vesak season: all places that give away food with added-sugar (cool drinks, coffee, ice-creams, seeni sambal as a side of another).
Back in the day when friends go abroad to earn money and return for vacation they take us out for lunch or dinner as their treat. Nowadays everybody pays for themselves, no treats, nothing. 😁
#Lka Buddhist monks must go back to following & spreading #LordBuddha’s teachings rather than:
doing lyrics/novels/art
carving stone statues
involving in politics
abusing/raping minors/adults
practicing astrology/vodou
practising indigenous medicine
doing business
hoarding wealth
