I went to visit Jaffna in Sri Lanka which is also known to many people as a place where most of the Sri Lankan ethnic conflict took place as LTTE were based on Jaffna. I went to a historically and culturally important place where it is believed to have Buddhist Kingdom some hundred or thousand years back. I saw this statue of Buddha and it made me think of the teachings of Buddha and made me question to myself if I have been using the philosophy of non violence by Buddha as a student of Peace and Conflict Studies and also being a citizen of the country where Buddha was born, Nepal.
