(Lanka-e-News- 29.March.2016, 11.30PM) According to history Prince Siddhartha married Yashodara not just on nonsensical sex or dowry, but rather by demonstrating his prowess in archery . Prince Siddhartha after marriage realizing the true woes and sufferings of the people , abandoned his wife Yashodara , his own son , his kingdom , his entire household and left his abode. This is now being described as a complex transmigration with a view to attain the mysteries of Nibbana going beyond the meaning of the word ‘radical.’
When Siddhartha undertook this journey , there wasn’t a single sinner to cling on to Siddhartha to prevent him from leaving.. Even ‘Maraya’ was not there . It was only the underling of Siddhartha playing the role of a stooge who clung on to the tail of ‘Saindhawa’ horse Kantaka to halt the journey. He was the only idiot then , and his name was Channa.
In any event , when Siddhartha was crossing the Neranjanawa river having abandoned everything ,even the heart of Kanthaka the animal was grief stricken whereas, as regards Channa even his ’ bibikum’ ( soft sweetmeat ) did not melt. This is because Channa did not have even the honesty which the animal had, for when Siddhartha left behind everything , it was Channa who took over whatever that were left behind to give it the King and became the wheeler dealer to put through the illict deal between the parties.
That is the story of Channas’ first deal in history.
In the same way as ‘Channaya’ could not prevent Prince Siddhartha’s pristine migration , it was not possible to track down
in Buddhist history the fate of Channaya ( whither he went ?), after Siddhartha reached his destination and attained ‘Buddhahood.’ Though passing references are made here and there about Channaya , those are hardly significant . In other words , Channaya who was a hindrance when Siddhartha attained ‘Buddhahood’ drove himself into hell.. Unable to preach the truth to Channaya even with this ‘Buddhahood power,’ only confirmed the stupidity of Channaya historically . Though it is said , Channa listened to bana (sermons) and reached Arahat, yet because there is no mention of what happened to him thereafter, the first story is enmeshed in a dispute .
The stooge ‘Varna Channa’ (an embellished Channa) who was stuck to the tail of the horse of his elder brother like a flea when the latter was for 20 long years of recorded history struggling to become a prime minister or president , and this ‘Varna Channaya’ who could not even as much as offer a handkerchief to help his elder brother , and this Varna Channaya who was obssessed with playing the role of wheeler dealer putting through deals jointly with the enemy , has sent a letter of demand to Lanka e news claiming a sum of US $ 100 million as compensation , while lodging a complaint with a police station in the capital city .
The reason : Lanka e news exposed, younger brother who is involved in the Vauxhall street land illicit deal. However with the elder brother cancelling that deal subsequently, the entire issue was suppressed. Yet, the fact of the matter is , if the elder brother was honest he could have rectified this Rajapakse’s irregular illicit deal without waiting until Lanka e news exposed it one year later. At the same time if the younger brother was honest , he too should have found nothing alarming in this exposure to go to the extent of setting his tail on fire and run amok, because we have still not exposed how the deal was ‘fixed’ in Kenya.
Be that may , for the last 70 years within this primitive Sri Lanka , we have witnessed how when an elder brother becomes a leader of this Island , the younger brothers-‘Channayas’ who were like fleas stuck to the tails of the elder brother ,displaying their ‘colors’ to indulge in self decorative and embellishing acts.
During the period of the last regime we witnessed how brothers and sons numbering seven decorated and embellished themselves misusing the despotic powers of the reign . Those rulers jailed journalists of Lanka e news ; abducted and caused them to disappear; set fire to Lanka e news Portal ; banned it ; and even sent hired assassins to England on six occasions to murder the editor . We at Lanka e news faced all these ordeals and despair, not to mention the lorry load of letters of demand sent by the Rajapakse regime to us. Of course , we can send this lorry load of letters to the new Channayas by post to read them.
Based on our experience might we point out we are not unaware of how scoundrels, rascals and rogues who are armed with a law degree are striving to exploit even a letter of demand to gain political mileage.
Let us make it abundantly clear , Lanka e news had always from the beginning acted in good faith and espoused the cause of truth. For 12 long years we have with this goal in view steadfastly championed without interruption the cause of the common man oblivious of the pains ,losses , devastation and despair that plagued us all along unrelentingly. In any case , the masses have taught us , this pursuit of the truth and acting in good faith are a greater blessing and bliss . Hence Lanka e news has made every effort all the time to impart that lesson to the people in much bigger numbers.
Through that the people and Lanka e news have achieved phenomenal success .This is not owing to any other reason but because we are the conscience of the Sri Lankans in the internet culture .
A flea of course has no progress even though it clings on to the tail of the Saindhawa horse.

Well done e-news. When the established media are selective in their reporting, you are doing a great job.
