🙏 Sacred Anuradhapura🙏

🙏 Sacred Anuradhapura🙏


                        We decided to visit Anuradhapura many years ago.There we proposed to visit the Atamasthana which is worshiped at the pooja.Ruwanweli Maha Seya, Thuparamaya Chaitya, Jayasiri Maha Bodhi, Mirisawetiya, Jethavanaramaya, Abhayagiriya, Lankaramaya and Lowamahapaya are known as Atamasthana.The Ruwanweli Stupa can be introduced as one of the places of worship where we worship. 
                          It is considered to be the most important dagoba in Anuradhapura today. This is also considered to be the dagoba where the largest number of sacred relics are kept. Our history tells us that the stupa, which was about 370 feet in diameter, was dug seven cubits deep, and the foundations were laid with stones, and the elephants were trampled underfoot with soft clay and iron nets. The relic chamber is made of six stone slabs. Ruwanweli Seya was the third religious creation of King Dutugemunu. 
                                  The foundation stone was laid on a full moon day on the 15th of Vesak and the work was completed as the largest dagoba in Sri Lanka at that time. Sources such as the Thupavansa state that the sacred relics are kept in a drona and that the Five Hundred and Fifty Jatakas and various occasions in the Buddhist tradition represent the meaning of the golden leaf. The circumference of Ruwanweliseya is 942 feet.

 🙂 Travel to Sembuwatta Lake❤️              I had heard of Sembuwatta.Sembuwatta is one of my favorite places to visit.It is located in the Matale area.I was able to visit it as I pleased.From Matale you have to climb a large mountain to reach there.            It was a very cold environment there.There was a lake built on the top of the mountain .It was a beautiful environment. On one side of the lake is a finesse forest. On the other side is a tea eastate.             Its a beautiful place with a cool climate.This beautiful place has attracted many local and foreign tourists.I am afraid that its beauty will be lost due to tourism.If so, its beauty will be lost.I was delighted to see the place around the lake.I think it's so wonderful to be able to go there again .

🙂 A remedy for stress🙂              I used to do various things to reduce the stress on my mind during busy days.Drawing can be taken as something I do to clear the mind like that.                  I'm not good at drawing images that come to my mind.I don't even have the ability to draw.I do it for mental satisfaction.Most of the time I used to watch easy pencil arts on youtube.The small arts in it draw me to the painting. It's important to clear the mind .I smile when I see some of the pictures I have drawn.In fact, they seem to be hand-drawn by someone who does not know how to draw.But I enjoy it.Drawing is a better way to forget about a really busy life.I will continue to do so for my own self-satisfaction.
