ஒரு 6 வயது சிறுவனிடமும் ஒரு 16 வயது சிறுவனிடமும் இறப்பைப்பற்றி கேட்டால், எப்படி பதிலளிப்பார்கள்? How to talk to kids about death ABC Everyday By Shona Hendley Posted 11 hours ago Last year was a difficult one in terms of death and grief for my family. We had three people close to us pass away against the backdrop of ever-rising COVID numbers and deaths broadcast by the media. While my husband and I were equipped to manage it, my children, who were only six and seven at the time, were not. Death was a relatively new concept to them and something they hadn't had to deal with firsthand. At the time I th…

In a quest in the form of a road movie, the film takes us to meet a people and their wounds. Following the old route of the exodus through the jungle, the journalist follows in the footsteps of an implacable mechanism. Up to the setting of the final trap: the …

Why are Buddhist monks attacking Muslims? By Alan Strathern Oxford University Of all the moral precepts instilled in Buddhist monks the promise not to kill comes first, and the principle of non-violence is arguably more central to Buddhism than any other major religion. So why have monks been using hate speech against Muslims and joining mobs that have left dozens dead? This is happening in two countries separated by well over 1,000 miles of Indian Ocean - Burma and Sri Lanka. It is puzzling because neither country is facing an Islamist militant threat. Muslims in both places are a generally peaceable and small minority. In Sri Lanka, the issue of halal slaugh…

EU ban unlikely to make LTTE give up its fight Web posted at: 6/4/2006 2:38:20 Source ::: IANS http://www.thepeninsulaqatar.com/Display_n...06060423820.xml New Delhi - Sri Lanka may be celebrating the European Union's ban on the Tamil Tigers and the co-chairs' warnings to further isolate them, but none of these is likely to halt the group's determination to achieve a Tamil Eelam state. If the past is any guide, the European Union decision, no doubt a major blow to the Tigers, will fail to make the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) give up its goal of carving out an independent homeland in Sri Lanka's north and east. It is even doubtful if the L…
