His visit was prompted by the invitation he had received to address a symposium on Australia and Buddhism in Perth. During his visit, he met with Sri Lankans of all ethnicities and religions, as well as many other Australians.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">His message throughout his presentations was that real and lasting peace amongst individuals, and communities, could not be achieved without first healing the mental wounds everyone suffers from to varying degrees of intensity. Through such a healing process, first by healing oneself, and then extending that to others through a better understanding of the wounds others may be suffering from, and assisting them in the healing process, equanimity and peace with oneself and with others would follow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Venerable Dhammananda also reminded audiences that Buddha\u2019s teachings, in particular, <em>pattichcha samuppadaya <\/em>or dependent origination, would assist one to understand the need for healing as a pre requite towards peace and equanimity. His message was that dependent origination was about linkage, and how every act arising from a thought has a preceding thought and a successor thought, and in this context, those who have wounds, and who may be labelled as \u201cvictims\u201d, and some others who may be labelled as \u201cperpetrators\u201d, or a third category, \u201cbystanders\u201d, could be the same person who may have been a victim at one point, a perpetrator at another point and bystander at other times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The ever changing thought processes and their linkage, accompanied by physical acts related to such thought processes as articulated in dependent origination, could cause the same person to be all three categories at different times due to their linkage. They would carry psychological wounds and mental scars, and these needed to be healed if that person is to understand another person who might be passing through a \u201cvictim\u2019 stage, but who may have passed through a perpetrator stage or a bystander stage earlier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Venerable Dhammananda mentioned some of the programs and projects that the Walpola Rahula Institute is engaged in to promote a better understanding of the healing process or \u201csuvapathveema\u201d as a pre requisite for peace and reconciliation. He mentioned some of the programs were meant for lay persons and some were meant for Venerable Monks and Nuns.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">He mentioned the monthly Metta Day Program as a fundamental effort to reintroduce loving-kindness as a tool for inner healing and conflict transformation at personal level, family level and in social level), and other like Buddhist approaches to Conflict Transformations \u2013 training programs for Venerable nuns and monks, Sanghas dialogues \u2013 Intra religious dialogue program Mindful Children and Teens for social healing\u00a0 Inter-religious dialogue on Social Healing, Disaster preparedness and community resilience trainings for venerable monks and nuns who are living in natural disaster prone areas. Healing of Memories programs that support to heal from painful memories of those who directly affected by conflict.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">He spoke at length about the latest effort on social healing that aims to heal divided communities in two small villages in the north and south of Sri Lanka through school children, the Rahula Thangaraja Twin Schools project, where two schools, one in Mallavi (a Tamil village which was in the thick of the armed conflict that ended in 2009, and the other in Kebitigollewa, a former Sinhala border village which had also experienced violence and terrorist acts during the armed conflict) have been linked to advance a healing process amongst students, teachers and parents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">This project is being done with the assistance of Sri Lankans in Sri Lanka and Australia through their personal involvement in different aspects of the project. Financial assistance, although needed, has not been the primary criteria for involvement by these well-wishers as one of the key objectives set out for the project is the healing of everyone associated with the project, including those providing assistance, and developing a better understanding of others by such participation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Among these, projects like the Buddhist approaches to Conflict Transformations \u2013 training programs for Venerable nuns and monks, Sangha dialogues, Intra religious dialogue program, Inter-religious dialogue on Social Healing, and Healing of Memories programs are projects that are done over varying periods of time from 2 to 6 monhs, interspread with sessions on actual learning experiences as part of the program. The Rahula-Thangaraja Twin Schools project is initially a one year project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Venerable Dhammananda urged his audiences to think differently about how inter and intra reconciliation amongst communities and within communities may be achieved and give thought to the idea of social healing as a path towards peace and reconciliation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">More details about WRI activities may be viewed on their Facebook page<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/walpolarahulainstitute\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/walpolarahulainstitute<\/a> or their website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walpolarahula.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.walpolarahula.org\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">GALKANDE DHAMMANANDA THERO<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Executive Director, Walpola Rahula Institute for Buddhist Studies<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Venerable Galkande Dhammananda Thero<\/strong>\u00a0is a Sri Lankan national and a monk of Theravada Buddhist tradition.
