Pansalwatte

3rasia did an education program for kids at Pansalwatte, a community in Maradana. The event was organized by CUP (Children’s Upliftment Program, www.cupsl.org).

The education was a two-way affair. We perhaps learned more from them than they did from us. The community is well organized, knowledgeable and is proud of its neighborhood which is cleaner than any Colombo 7 one. The temple is at the edge of the community and the young priest demonstrated a wisdom that we don’t find in the Buddhist establishment. The community is multiethnic and the temple serves as a spiritual haven for all in the community. Please visit our gallery to see more pictures.
