Gautama Buddha preached to his disciples that only by giving up everything can the mind be at peace and that sorrow be ended. By imposing disciplinary orders on the monks to give up everything and use only two robes, it was hoped that the existence of the monks as well as the Buddhist people would be taken to the path of Buddhism. Instead of abandoning the bhikku community that should be trained in abandonment, it was possible to uncover a number of hidden activities in the Kuragala temple industry which is being built by creating religious divisions and facing various allegations. That was during a discussion between senior journalist Chamuditha Samarawickrema and the Chief Incumbent of the Kuragala Rajamaha Vihara Wathurakumbure Dhammaratana Thero.
There were various rumors circulating among the people that Nelligala Kuragala along with former Army Commander Shavendra Silva had taken the treasure during this construction, but all of them were limited to rumors. The reason for the various allegations was that the construction took place by evicting the Muslims who were in the place.
In this revelation Ven. Wathurakubure Dhammaratana Thero Chisin states that it cost Rs. 1500 million to build Kuragala It was also stated that the government did not buy a bag of cement. The discussion sparked heated debate, with Saharan claiming he had been threatened. Mr. Chamuditha Samarawickrema was also questioned as to whether the Thero had created Mera racism with the Rajapaksas.
It was also revealed that Azath Salley’s brother was spending money to attack him.
Some Buddhist monks take the initiative to destroy even the oldest temples, monasteries, temples and stupas, which is against the discipline of Buddhist monks. While all this is happening in Sri Lanka, the construction of Balangoda Kuragala is currently the largest and most spectacular temple industry emerging in Sri Lanka, creating religious as well as ethnic controversy. The place had been abandoned by the Sinhala Buddhist people themselves.
Meanwhile, Sri Lankan Muslims were conducting their religious activities at the site and there were differences of opinion among Buddhists regarding the construction. Many people who love law and archeology speak ill of it, especially because of the luxurious apartment building, the lion that can be seen instead of a Buddha statue as you get off the bus, as well as all the antiquities in the area. According to the law, an archeological site cannot be destroyed. But can be developed and should be done under the supervision of the Department of Archeology so as not to damage any old structures.
In particular, the basis of the Sangha regime is the Bhikku Vinaya Laws. There, the Buddha enacted the rules of Bhikku Vinaya based on ten points. The ten principles of Bhikku Viha were the good existence of the Sangha, its ease, the restraint of the untouchables, the easy exile of the Sangha, the liberation from the associations of defilement, the liberation from the supernatural associations, the enlightenment of the enlightened, the increase of the enlightenment of the enlightened, and the establishment of the Bhikku Sanwara.
However, the oldest places are being destroyed, making the teaching of Buddhism a reality, where everything disappears. The contribution of Buddhist monks to the creation of a better society by going beyond the discipline or by contributing to the process of healing the minds of the Buddhist people through such constructions is invaluable.
