BLESSINGS ON SRI LANKA
Sri Lanka, the resplendent land, the Pearl of the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka, the blessed isle, Dhammadipa, where the Buddha’s teaching was written down and safeguarded for the human race.
Sri Lanka, the land that the forces of ignorance, greed and hatred seek to usurp and tear asunder.
May the forces of wisdom and compassion prevail on this election day August 17, 2015-to protect Sri Lanka, her culture and the well-being of all her people and the generations to come.

To the ALWAYS FAITHFUL Patriots,
A Heartfelt Tribute in Gratitude!
Semper Fidelis, Patriots of Lanka
By Ananda-USA
Our Motherland, resplendent Sri Lanka,
Hallowed be thy name!
Thy children flock today to vote,
To preserve thy immortal flame!
The Lion Flag flutters proudly aloft,
To remind us this freedom’s day!
Our duty to keep thee, safe and strong,
As our forefathers did yesterday!
A Mahinda Rajapaksa by deed and word,
Strode forth boldly to eternal fame!
To lead his people to a safer world,
When all others retreated in shame!
