Who are the Extremists in Sri Lanka – Christianity, Islam or Buddhists?
Posted on May 25th, 2019

Attack on Buddhism/Buddhists & Buddha is nothing new. The Buddhists are easy prey because both Christianity & Islam are institutionalized faiths with powerful funding, powerful countries & powerful organizations to back them. From ‘Age of Discovery’ the Papal Bulls, Christianization of lands to Islamization of lands, every Buddhist occupied land from Persia to Indonesia was stolen from them by the sword. A stark contrast to the spread of Buddhism without a sword or forced conversion. The philosophy that spread is killing institutionalized religions that thrive on rules, regulations and monthly tithe. The dana or giving is all that the Buddhist philosophy promotes. If you cannot destroy the enemy externally attempt to do so within is the latest strategy to co-opt born Buddhists wearing Buddhist robes & employed to distort Buddha’s teaching & take people along a wrong path. Their karma will haunt them. Buddhists are referred to as ‘racists’ ‘extremists’ ‘fundamentalists’ ‘militants’ ‘terrorists’ & even ‘clowns’. Obviously, some people are very annoyed with the teachings of Buddha. Fundamentalism is described as A person who takes their religion so literally and to such extremes that they contradict the very basis of their faith. They typically believe in a literal, verbatim interpretation of their scripture”. The last part is interesting. This means people are complaining about Buddhist fundamentalists or extremists taking their scripture to the extremes… in other words they are against the Buddhists reaching nirvana – the ultimate extreme! That is rather odd isn’t it!

In short, those that refer to people following the extremist side of their religion are called fundamentalists or extremists. Those that are claiming Buddhists please answer how Christianity or Islam spread across the world, how they took over entire lands & how they forcibly converted, how iconoclasm a foundation of their religion resulted in destruction of non-Christian/non-Islamic ancient artefacts and marvels? Are these not the same vandalisms we see taking place in 21st century? While over 600 years separates Buddhism from Christianity & close to 1000 years separates Buddhism from Islam there is no shred of evidence to prove Buddhism spread by force or with sword. The extremisms of Christianity & Islam is nowhere found in Buddhism though the paid press and propagandists make every effort to show otherwise.

Religious extremism derives from what cults or groups take out from the very books of their faiths. Whether it is in context or out of context there is not a single word found in Buddhas teachings to attack or kill another but there are plenty of verses that can be taken from Islam & Christianity which is what is being used for political Islam and militant Islam today and Christians are doing same. While both Islam & Christianity EXTREMISM is taking whatever ‘out of context’ verses for their extremism – if Buddhists are described as extremists based on their faith it only means Buddhists give up all materialism to attain nirvana. It is quite laughable when people describe Buddhists as ‘extremists’ because extremism of Buddhism is quite the opposite of extremisms of Islam & Christianity.

Not a single word in the Dhammapada tells any Buddhist to kill. Not a single word in Buddhas teachings have separated or categorized people or told Buddhists how to treat non-Buddhists. Buddhism spread by word of compassion and not by any weapon or force. This is what makes Buddhism stand out from how Christianity & Islam spread. This is why there are well-funded efforts to present notion that Buddhism is violent though nothing in Buddhist texts speak of violence whereas enough of clauses and statements can be taken out from Christianity & Islam to show violence.

CHRISTIANITY

What are the quotes from the Bible that speak of extremity which encourages people to follow extremes! Just imagine Christian fundamentalists following these commandments to the word!

Do not think that I have come to bring peace on earth; I have not come to bring peace, but with a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man’s foes will be those of his own household. He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy.”

(Matthew 10:34-37 from Prince of Peace)

I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, she must be silent.”

(St Paul’s advice in 1 Timothy 2:12 and used to argue against women priests)

This is what the Lord Almighty says … ‘Now go and strike Amalek and devote to destruction all that they have. Do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.’

(endorsing genocide, from 1 Samuel 15:3)

Do not allow a sorceress to live.”

(Moses’s call to kill witches, in Exodus 22:18)

And every one who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands, for my name’s sake, will receive a hundred-fold, and inherit eternal life.”

(Matthew 19:29 a lot of inducement)

Happy is he who repays you for what you have done to us / He who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks.”

(Psalm 137 on revenge)

You can kill a woman if she seizes a man’s private parts without his permission: Deuteronomy 25:11-1: If two men are fighting and the wife of one of them comes to rescue her husband from his assailant, and she reaches out and seizes him by his private parts, you shall cut off her hand. Show her no pity.

Wives, submit to you husbands as to the Lord”

(God’s test of Abraham in Genesis 22, in which Abraham is made to offer his son Isaac as a sacrifice; endorsement of female subservience in Ephesians 5:22)

Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the cruel.”

(1 Peter 2:18)

I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.”

(1 Timothy 2:12 St. Paul’s advice)

For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places: all this is but the beginning of the sufferings.”

(Matthew 24:7-8)

Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s.”

(Matthew 22:21)

…the women should keep silence in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be subordinate, as even the law says. If there is anything they desire to know, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church”.

(1 Corinthians 14:34-35) – shameful for a women to be in Church

Let a woman learn in silence with all submissiveness. I permit no woman to teach or have authority over men; she is to keep silent. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. Yet woman will be saved through bearing children, if she continues in faith and love and holiness, with modesty.”

(1 Timothy 11:15) – so women are good to only give birth to children!

I tell you, on the day of judgment men will render account for every careless word they utter; for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

(Matthew 12:36-37) – when killing is justified

ISLAM

Now let’s imagine Islamic fundamentalists/extremists following their commandments to the word! No wonder that Islamic terrorists are screaming ‘Allahu Akbar” and terrorizing the world.

The Quran contains at least 109 verses that call Muslims to war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule.

“The notion of jihad martyrdom is extolled in the Quran, Quran verse 9:1-11. And then in the Hadith, it’s even more explicit. This is the highest form of jihad — to kill and to be killed in acts of jihad.”

Quran (2:191-193)

And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution [of Muslims] is worse than slaughter [of non-believers]… but if desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah.”

(authorizes killing of others and encourages fighting until religion of Allah prevails)

Quran (2:216)

Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not.”

(showcases violence as virtuous while contradicting fighting is for self-defense)

Quran (8:12)

I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore, strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them” 

Hadith 1:13

I have been ordered by Allah to fight with people till they bear testimony to the fact that there is no God but Allah.”

Hadith 1:35

The person who participates in Allah’s cause (namely, in battle). . will be recompensed by Allah either with reward or booty or will be admitted to Paradise.”

Hadith 9:4

Wherever you find infidels kill them; for whoever kills them shall have reward on the Day of Resurrection.”

Quran (5:33)

The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement”

Ibn Ishaq/Hisham 484:

Allah said, ‘A prophet must slaughter before collecting captives. A slaughtered enemy is driven from the land. Muhammad, you craved the desires of this world, its goods and the ransom captives would bring. But Allah desires killing them to manifest the religion.’”

BUDDHISM

Buddhism does not have ‘commandments’/orders. His Teachings were not revealed by coercion or ordering. His Ten Precepts are to be taken voluntarily for one’s own benefit and for that of others. A Buddhist goes to the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha for guidance (sarana) not refuge.

The course Buddha has advised Buddhists to follow are

Thou art well advised not to take the lives of living beings.

Thou art well advised not to take what is not given.

Thou art well advised not to engage in sexual misconduct.

Thou art well advised not to commit perjury (speak falsely when questioned as a witness).

Thou art well advised not to speak divisively (separating those who are united).

Thou art well advised not to speak harshly (offensively).

Thou art well advised not to speak frivolously.

Thou art well advised not to covet.

Thou art well advised not to harbor ill-will.

Thou art well advised not to hold wrong-views

The other 5 Precepts preached by Buddha are

Abstain from taking life unnecessarily

Abstain from taking things not given

Abstain from immoral actions

Abstain from false speech

Abstain from intoxicating liquors and drugs

Abstaining is not an order. Karma awaits that chooses not to. It is however, their choice. The decision to do good or bad is a person & the good & bad karma will follow as a result.

Non-violence is at the heart of Buddhist thinking and behaviour. There is not a single line in 423 verses (Dhammapada) on the Buddha’s doctrine that refer to fighting, violence or killing. Never has Buddhism waged wars or killed in the name of Buddhism. The Buddha denounced all forms of violence.

In times when priests told people that God can be approached through them only and priests were dominating and applying rules upon people, and the Truth was to be found only through them, Buddha showed how people could find the Truth on their own.

The Buddha asked loving-kindness to be extended not only to men, but even to all animals. His doctrine was that we suffer misery because we are self. Our unlimited desires lead to misery. The way out is to give up the self. Just as the body changes our mind, consciousness changes. Selfishness comes from holding on to self. If we know that there is no self we will be happy. He spoke against animal sacrifice. He said that God is a superstition invented by priests.

Conquer the angry one by not getting angry; conquer the wicked by goodness; conquer the stingy by generosity, and the liar by speaking the truth”

[Verse 223]

The one who has conquered himself is a far greater hero than he who has defeated a thousand times a thousand men.”

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.

Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many.

Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books.

Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.

Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”

All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts and made up of our thoughts. If a man speak or act with an evil thought, suffering follows him as the wheel follows the hoof of the beast that draws the wagon…. If a man speak or act with a good thought, happiness follows him like a shadow that never leaves him.”

To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one’s family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one’s own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.”

It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.”

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.”

In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.”

If Buddhists were to take compassion to the extremes as advocated in the teachings of the Buddha the world would indeed be a beautiful place and nature, flora and fauna would be protected.

There are no lines in Buddha’s teaching calling Buddhists to take up arms, to indulge in violence, to kill (except in self-defence).

So who are the extremists/fundamentalists and how dangerous are those that take to the extremes of their scriptures?

Both Christianity and Islam divided the world between believers and nonbelievers, who is to be saved and who is to be damned. Both have declared wars in the name of their religion.

Both continue to uphold the sanctity of the Church and State (though they claim contrary). Those that recall the Dark Ages, Reformation would realize that 2.3 Christian population of Europe was murdered. The Napoleonic Wars, African slave trade which claimed 10million, the colonial conquests saw the murder of 20m in the Americas alone. It is estimated that the 20th century alone killed 250million people of which Muslims are said to be responsible for less than 10million. Christians have much to account for. World War 1 claimed 20m, 90% inflicted by Christians. World War 2 claimed 90m 50% inflicted by Christians. The 6m Jews were killed by Christians and not Muslims! There is no end still. America is the only country ever to have used nuclear weapons twice upon one country. Today, many Christians are realizing the truth and are taking a more practical view to life which cannot be said of the increasing militant/political Islam now being aggravated by West using as a geopolitical intervention tool.

Buddhists must refuse to be shouted down by well-funded propaganda. Buddhists have not caused historical or contemporary deaths using religion that run into millions by both Christianity & Islam. Isolated cases promoted via media denouncing Buddhism and Buddhists should not be accepted because none of their actions quote Buddhist texts unlike Christianity/Islam.

There have been no bloody wars to spread Buddhism. Therefore, those that ridicule Buddhists as fundamentalists/extremist are essentially laughing at Buddhists taking the teachings of Buddha and the Dhammapada to extremes and in reality it is something to be proud of because what is wrong in treating all equally, in finding the Truth, to love nature and not indulge in animal sacrifice and find oneself. Perhaps the clowns that ridicule Buddhists need to read about Buddhism first!

The world would be dangerously compassionate if Buddhist extremism prevailed!

All tremble at violence; all fear death.

Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.”

    The writer has misrepresented Buddhism.

    “Abstain from taking life unnecessarily” – The first time I am reading this. Would the writer be able to give any reference to a Sutta. “”Abstain from taking life ” is repeated more than 100 times in Suttas but NEVER with the condition “unnecessarily”.

    Another satement misquoting Buddhsm is QUOTE – “There are no lines in Buddha’s teaching calling Buddhists to take up arms, to indulge in violence, to kill (except in self-defence)” UNQUOTE

    I don’t understand why this writer want to misrepresent what Buddha repeatedly said and suffer in hell.

    Read it clearly from Kakachupama Sutta.
    QUOTE for translation by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
    “Monks, even if bandits were to carve you up savagely, limb by limb, with a two-handled saw, he among you who let his heart get angered even at that would not be doing my bidding. Even then you should train yourselves: ‘Our minds will be unaffected and we will say no evil words. We will remain sympathetic, with a mind of good will, and with no inner hate. We will keep pervading these people with an awareness imbued with good will and, beginning with them, we will keep pervading the all-encompassing world with an awareness imbued with good will — abundant, expansive, immeasurable, free from hostility, free from ill will.’ That’s how you should train yourselves.”
    UNQUOTE.
    In fact, that is the beauty of Buddhsim. No violence to the extreme. Therefore, if you are talking about non-violence Buddhism is superior or you may call it extreme. Therefore extremists Buddhist will have no ill will over you even if you cut their limbs one by one. Beat it if you can !

  3. Nimal Says:

    All religious writings supposed to be the true words of the founder of the religion is highly distorted because they are written decades after the founder had departed this world. Founders of all religions spread peace and harmony among people,never said anything that was controversial. All these distortions are written by persons with their own prejudices which is now causing all the problems in nations. We should not get our nickers in a twist on every sentence that is controversial by our civilized standards.
    Honestly the religion and their shelters sometimes give refuge to politicians,crooks and freaks and we could sometimes do without it.By the way the last colonials converted the majority Dravidians into Buddhists,first by converting the Hindu devales to Buddhist temples, went to the extent getting a few of their people to make the statues and erect them in the Dravidian places of worship. They made it a privilege for people to be Buddhists or Christians.One could see that change if you examine the Maligawa and the Kotte’s Rajamaha vihara.They wrote the convention in 1815,opened up the Malgawa to the converted Buddhists and set up the roads near the Malgawa to have the first Perahara in 1824,all organized by governor Manning.
    In fact our converted para pretenders to the Sinhala race, the Kandyan leaders wanted to disrupt the first Perahara in Kandy and the British protected the innocent citizens(now British) with 1500 Malay troopers. Why did they oppose a such an event? Because it was in the culture of tyrants who ruled us in the past never allowed the innocent people the freedom to enjoy life.
    I am sure there were excesses among the Christian lobby among the colonials but on the whole they were caring and generous to their people under them. Forget the Uva and Matale incidents that were revisionist plots by our para fake Sinhala leaders to get back that was lost by them to the majority who were innocent citizens. I am glad that those plots failed. This is because the British too suffered the tyranny of their kings and Vatican and their king defied the Vatican and subsequently the power of the nation was handed over to the people that lead to Parliamentary democracy which even Lenin and and Marx came to observe. Nor sooner the Brits took over,they put the public toilets,the first school,the CMS in Kotte in 1822 where my great,great grand father had a very small school at Gotamy road in Boralla and this tiny school and few others scattered over the country lead to CMS Kotte,Ananda,Nalanda,Royal,Trinity,St Paricks Jaffna.They encouraged us the true Sinhalese to move out of south to places like Baddegama(Dutch too was involved in Bagddegama),Kotte,Talwa(my father was born there) and one of our families in the south was move to Basawakulama,just next to Ruvan walisaya in Anrathapura.We Sinhalese are in denial,tyrying their stupid very best to go back to our Dravidian roots by wearing their national Ambude and even sharing our Sinhalese New year with them.So be happy that our last colonials did the most for us, though there were good and the bad they did, but mostly good, the reason why I am happy to have a home in UK.

    Who else? It’s mussies, mussies and mussies. Why? Because they breed too much and the murder text book
    says kill all non believers which is more suited pre-historic times. Too much breeding going to cause problems
    just like explained in Darwin’s Theory of Natural Selection.

    Mussies multiply and multiply to take over countries. Naturally, the menace has to murder the natives in millions
    and end up in blood baths. But the text book they follow says murder, murder, murder non-believers. It makes
    sense to only brain dead/brainless people. So mussies go on the rampage all over the world thinking their
    dirty, disgusting, sub human trick of multiply, multiply and murder the natives which the menace used to turn
    old Buddhist iran, afganisthan, pakesthan, bangladesh, malaysia and indonesia will work in this scientific era.

    The dirty, sub human, disgusting trick worked in the olden days since the natives didn’t realise until the menace multiply and multiply and turn up on their doorstep to murder them. But in today’s tv, internet, phone age people get to know and fight back to save their livelihoods. That’s what happened recently in Buddhist Myanmar. Mussies from neighbouring bangladesh crept over the border to fertile lands in Myanmar and multiplied and multiplied and
    once the numbers are high enough started the murdering natives campaign (brutally of course to have
    maximum effect). Unfortunately for the mussies and fortunately for Myanmar, they had a patriotic leader
    and took action and mussies fled over the border to bangladesh with 100s of 1000s children coming out of
    ears. Myanmar saved and from being old Buddhist Myanmar. Mussies should take leaf out of the Chinese
    living in Sri Lanka for 1000s of years. There are small communities in every big town. Numbers? After 50
    years 100 years or 1000 years they still number same because the union of two produce 2 or less. Mussies?
    Mussies have baby machines and the place will be awash in no time mussie eye sore mosque, halal, goni
    billa dress, mussie mps,ministers etc. etc. All the parties happy? Over the moon?

    Sri Lanka? Mussies mulltiplied, multiplied and multiplied exploiting divided Sinhalese, thanks to traitor United
    Ponnyain Party aka UNPatriotic_rats party. Once the numbers were high enough started the dirty, disgusting, sub
    human trick. Over 300 innocent victims paid with their lives to reveal dirty mussies agenda which was to murder
    an entire race by millions using sword stores/bomb stores/gun stores the menace put up in every street corner so
    called mosques. Can you believe how ungrateful, how brain dead, how crafty these traitors are? STILL NOT A
    SINGLE MUSSIE DESHAPALUWA CAME TO CONDEMN THE MURDERERS OR THE MUSSIE DESHAPALUWANS WHO
    PAVED THE WAY FOR ALL THESE AIDING AND ABETTING THE TRAITORS. Only one question we have for these
    sub humans, how can you still live in this society after what you’ve done to a host country?

    Suicide bombs
    sterrle agents (wanda pethi) n food
    sterile agents in women’s under garments for Sinhalese women
    land grabbing
    relentless breeding
    mosques in every street corner, not even our sacred cities spared when not even a Buddha pic is allowed in
    mussie countries
    mussie only schools
    mussie only parties to somersault after the elections to land powerful minister posts to aid and abet multiplication,
    separate eclaves etc.
    sharia law
    burka, goni bill dress (high fashion in hell), halal only (halal fish?)
    child brides to start production line early
    arab villages wherever mussies see a bit of land to settle down musse new breeds
    mussie doctors sterilising Sinhalese mums
    Wilpatthu, Sinharaja deforestation to settle down new nussie out put
    Kuragala etc. new mussie villages with the support of mussie deshapaluwan
    no law for mussies in Sri Lanka. Whatever court decision is overturned by bada uuru deen, his bxlla etc. etc
    importing the menace from afganisthan, pakesthan, Myanmar etc. etc with large families as if we don’t have
    enough of the menace already.

    List goes on and on. Still not a word from the traitor lot. How can we trust these sub humans again? Bada uuru
    deen, a sad ali (not enough children to be sad?), empty dog aka his bxlla, muji bxlla raha bxlla, sm slimy
    marakkalaya, xxxxheem, fowsie the owl, kabir hashish, ass rough of old (feel sorry for the helicopter crew),
    bada uuru deen of old under Sirima B who started mussie only schools to hide real numbers (started with
    50 mussies today all of them are 6000+) should take the blame for the blood bath we all are heading for.
    Mussies should give up the madness and replace eye sore mosques with temples from the only true religion
    in world Buddhism, which will guide them in the right path in the samsara journery we all are travelling lifetime
    after lifetime.

    Ban the religion of madness aka fastest breeding religion aka religion of violence. Why we need this barbaric cult which is more suited to pre-historic times when we have the only true religion in the world. People used to worship
    trees, rivers, mountains, gods in the olden days in the absence of science. We all know (except the brain dead)
    the earth’s size is a grain of sand in the vast vast universe (just like Buddha explained) where distance are measured in light years and no scientist knows where the edges are to date. Also why the grain of sand, the
    moon and sun etc. etc are round which is due to the gravitational forces they have. If the grain of sand where
    all 7+ billions two legged creatures and trillions in the animal kingdom live and with rivers, mountains, seas etc. isn’t important in the universe do we need to say anything about the moon. Just Google earth from space if you
    are still a doubter.

    Buddhism’s Five Precepts:
    1 Refrain from taking life
    2 Refrain from thieving
    3 Refrain from sexual misconduct
    4 Refrain from lying
    5 Refrain from alcohol/drug abuse

    Above those are all the sins any 2 legged creature can do anywhere under the sun and they are the basis for
    penal codes in every country in the world. People follow those religions of conveniences which don’t regard sins
    as sort of non-sins and pay for them in the next 100s of 1000s of years in the animal kingdom before get the
    ‘promotion’ to be two legged creatures again (sort of Darwin’s Theory of Evolution). Most honest and not brain
    dead people will agree. Murder tops the list and gets the maximum punishment. 72 virgins? In the animal kingdom for 100s of 1000s of life times. After all ask any law maker to find a misdeed falling outside those above 5! Buddhism was true over 2,500 years ago and it will be to the last day of the universe.

    Buddhism disappeared from its birth place since it didn’t fit the society with animal sacrifices, caste systems etc.
    etc and they quickly reverted back to religions of conveniences which don’t regard sins as sins and to pay for
    them in 100s of 1000s of lifetimes in the animal kingdom. Then invading mussies killed all the Buddhist monks
    and burnt down the Buddhist monasteries (a world’s first) and got rid of the only true religion in the world. People
    who worship gods, moon etc. etc. are not living in the 21st century. They are scared god will punish them not
    realising man made the god rather than god made the man (Darwin’s Theory of Evolution).

    Great innovator and visionary Arthur C Clark said by 2050 whole world going to be Buddhist. The reason? Another great scientific discovery or discoveries will destroy mythical gods forever. Remember this is 2018, not 000 or
    650! Gods should’ve died with Dariwin’s Theory of Evolution or NASA’s missions which showed the earth’s size
    is a grain of sand etc. But rich and powerful organisations and millions of paid staff (priests, pastors not pasta,
    i’mmads, ullamas bakamoonas etc. etc.) kept god alive and in the case of fastest breeding religion aka religion
    of violence with their fast multiplying. Science has proven them wrong them again and again. But one day it will
    give irrefutable evidence to destroy the myths for good.
