  • The National Christian Council of Sri Lanka Annual Report 2012-13
    1 2 THE NATIONAL CHRISTIAN COUNCIL OF SRI LANKA ANNUAL REPORT 2012-13 An ecumenical pilgrimage… with the God of life 3 4 An Ecumenical Pilgrimage ...with the God of Life We believe in a living God, a God who lives and enables all living beings to exist, a God who is the source of life, a God who assures fullness of life and bestows on us the possibility of eternal life. We believe in a God who creates and sustains life, a God who affirms life. Human life therefore is sacred, because human life came into being through the very breath of God, which indicates the ultimate possibility of a closer relationship between God and humans. In the life and ministry of Jesus we find that death is defeated on the cross along with all agents of death. Death is the denial of life. The defeat of death is the affirmation of life, which is assured, experienced and made possible through the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. The proclamation of the risen Lord, is actually a proclamation that death is defeated, the agents of death overcome, and that eternal life and abundant life is a possibility for every human being. This is clearly summed up in the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, ... I came that they may have life and have it abundantly” (Jn 10:10) and “I give them eternal life, and they will never perish...” (Jn 10:28). The final vision of the Reign of God is portrayed in the image of the river of life and the tree of life (Rev.

  • Gandhi's Army
    GANDHI’S ARMY: DEFENDING THE HOMELESS IN WESTMINSTER Jad Adams When Martin Luther King arrived at Palam airport, New Delhi, on 10 February 1959, he made a statement: ‘To other countries I may go as a tourist, but to India I come as a pilgrim. This is because India means to me Mahatma Gandhi, a truly great man of the age.’ Jawaharlal Nehru had invited King to India specifically because he had been promoting Gandhian ideas as part of the civil rights movement. It was a recognition of King, but also a celebration that Gandhi’s thought had wider applications than the Indian independence struggle alone. King had personal reasons for coming to India as he wanted to study Gandhi’s ideas more closely. King’s success in the civil rights movement had meant he was a celebrity, and therefore in danger of becoming absorbed into American society as a safe rebel, a glorified after-dinner speaker. He rebelled against absorption in the system and yearned for a Gandhian renunciation of worldly goods. His wife Coretta, who accompanied him on the trip, said that under Gandhi’s influence, ‘If Martin had had his way, he would have taken an oath of poverty, refusing even the most basic necessities, such as a house. He felt that much of the corruption in society came from the desire to own material things.’ Coretta saw things differently, and King conceded on some possessions for the family, though he refused to own anything himself, putting their house and car in Coretta’s name. She hinted at tensions over the issue when she remarked, ‘That brand of asceticism was more than I had expected in our marriage, and it was more than I could accept.’ Knowing Gandhi King’s familiarity with Gandhi’s ideas had deep roots.

  • Alumni Statement on the Future of Jaffna College
    Alumni Statement on the Future of Jaffna College We, the undersigned alumni of Jaffna College, are gravely concerned about the future of Jaffna College as the intransigence on the part of the Board of Directors to introduce key reforms in the governance and administration of our almamater has begun to cripple the everyday life of the College. We are disappointed that the Board of Directors of Jaffna College lost the opportunity to bring about the reforms prescribed by the Trustees in their letter dated 5 January 2017 and subsequent communications to the Chairperson of the Board of Directors of Jaffna College through the year. The Trustees of Jaffna College Funds were unequivocal in their position that the College required some far-reaching reforms in the areas of management, financial administration and recruitment. The alumni associations of Jaffna College all over the world unreservedly endorsed those reforms in the statements they issued in 2017. The Trustees also requested the Board to have serious and sincere consultations with various stakeholders of the College such as the alumni, teachers and parents in making the school and its governance more inclusive, democratic and transparent. To the best of our knowledge, the Board has not shown any genuine interest in initiating such conversations on these matters with any of these groups. The responses and proposals for reforms sent to the Trustees by the Board of Directors were not shared with the Jaffna College Alumni Association. Based on the Trustees’ letters to the Chairperson of the Board which were shared with the alumni and others, we can reasonably conclude that the Board is unwilling to bring about any major reforms that would lead to greater democratization and transparency in the school and the Board.

  • Gandhi, the Making of the Mahatma, and Gandhi, My Father
    The Tale Of Gandhi Through The Lens: An Inter-Textual Analytical Study Of Three Major Films- Gandhi, The Making Of The Mahatma, And Gandhi, My Father C.S.H.N. MURTHY, [email protected] OinamBedajit Meitei, Dapkupar TARIANG Volume 2.2 (2013) | ISSN 2158-8724 (online) | DOI 10.5195/cinej.2013.66 | http://cinej.pitt.edu Abstract For over half a century Gandhi has been one of the favored characters of a number of films – Nine hours to Rama (1963) to Gandhi, My Father (2007). Gandhian ethos, life and teachings are frequently represented in varied ways in different films. The portrayal of Gandhi in different films can be grouped into two broad categories: i. revolving around his life, percept and practice as one category and ii. involving his ideas, ideals and views either explicitly or implicitly. Using Bingham’s (2010) discursive analysis on biopic films, the study seeks to show how Gandhi is perceived and depicted through the lenses of these three eminent directors vis-à-vis others from the point of intertextuality both ideologically and politically. Further the study would elaborate how different personal and social events in Gandhi’s life are weaved together by these directors to bring out the character of Bapu or Mahatma from Gandhi. For all the above critique, Gandhi’s autobiography-The Story of My Experiments with Truth-has been taken as a base referent. Keywords: Comparative analysis, Inter-textuality, Gandhian Ethos, Portrayal, crisscross critiquing, Mahatma, etc. CINEJ Cinema Journal : The Tale of Gandhi through the lens New articles in this journal are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 United Volume 2.2 (2013) | ISSN 2158-8724 (online) | DOI 10.5195/cinej.2013.66 | http://cinej.pitt.edu 4 States License.

  • EAP835 Survey Reports Anonymous Private Collection 1
    EAP835 Survey Reports Anonymous Private Collection 1 Description of materials: Collection 1 consists of ten manuscript volumes produced by the ​ American Ceylon Mission (ACM) between 1815 and 1883. These volumes include reports, ​ church record books, and minutes from ACM meetings, letterbooks, and a volume of advice for the wives of missionaries. Due to their focus on the ACM and authorship by its leading early figures, these volumes are related to the materials held in Collection 2, at the Jaffna Diocese of the Church of South India (JDCSI) in Vaddukoddai, Jaffna. Most of these materials are in fair to poor condition. Survey method: Seven manuscripts were originally shown to EAP835 Programme Managers ​ by a member of the Jaffna Protestant community who is well-known to Manager Mark Balmforth. The Managers immediately noted that the manuscripts are all unique files from the nineteenth-century and therefore digitizable by British Library guidelines. Following this discovery, the Managers were given permission to survey the Private Collector’s home to search for new materials but none were found. Over the course of five months, the Private Collector unearthed three other nineteenth-century manuscript volumes of the same subjects and value as the previous materials. The Collector has noted that they will willingly share with EAP835 any new documents they might come upon in the future. Description of archive: The materials from this collection were not arranged when found. They ​ were lent to EAP835 in a suitcase, in no particular order.
