Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Let us follow our own nonviolent, civilizational ethos. The Blessed Buddha taught, “May all beings be happy.” We should be a mediator extinguishing the flames of war, inviting the world through our philosophical vision. I conclude.

¶ 02 Thank you.
