I must start off with the captioning of this phrase “that The name Lankawa was a direct imprint by Lord Buddha Himself”; through His doctrinal and philosophical declaration of the Lankawathara Suthraya from the top of Mount Sri Pada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It should be pointed out here, by me, that, although, through the passages of time vivid changes occurred in the body of Lankawa; yet, it sustained itself as the trader\u2019s paradise of the Indian Ocean; with its remarkable Thearavada Trading Economy\u201d. And the remarkable Thearavada Philosophy; which was conceived to the Sinha Hela Race by, The Lord Buddha Himself; as foreshadowed earlier by me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the reason, which led the Dutch, to incorporate the Dutch East India Trading Company on the 20th of March 1602; and soon afterwards, within a month and ten days; on the 2nd of May 1602, the Dutch Admiral Joris van Spilbergen\u2019 to arrive in Batticaloa, with three ships from the Dutch port of Veere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 1602 to 1706, a hundred years later, the corruption builds up, as the reigning Dutch Governor Simons, destroyed the core essence of the Dutch arrival in Lankawa; with the 1706 Dutch Codification of the Tesawalami regulation, giving <\/p>\n\n\n\n

predominance to the Malabar caste of the Tamil people as the indigenous Tamil people, of the Northern Province of Ceylon; which gave them hope of a Tamil Eelam State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the embodiments which represented our Thearavada Buddhist nation Lankawa; was smuggled to a hideout in the Nainativu Nagapooshani Amman Kovil, until its custody was miraculous taken back; through my continuous enchanting and perseverance and pursuance to retain it.back to its original ownership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would finally close by saying: (“\u0daf\u0dd0\u0db1\u0dca \u0d85\u0db8\u0dcf \u0daf\u0ddc\u0dbb \u0dc0\u0dd2\u0dc0\u0dbb \u0dc0\u0dd3 \u0d87\u0dad”),<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
