It’s a common sight to see politicians rushing to speak to the media and this is to satisfy their ego. It’s common knowledge that the present situation is most unacceptable and remedial action needs high priority and this must originate from the Sangha. The Buddha Sasana is nourished by those who gave up lay life and donned the sacred robe and the lay people. SMS who pioneered this wake up call mentioned what a Katina Pinkama was for and what the Sangha had to do during the VAS SEASON OR THE RAINY SEASON. While thanking SMS for having set the ball rolling I thank the Editor too for providing some space to highlight this all important need where learned monks will give high priority and save the destruction of the SASANA from within.
