MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER

The most important quality in human lives is non-other than helping others. Others can be helped out from different means and ways which could be looked at from different perspectives. In my opinion, as far as twenty first century (2000 onwards) is concerned, all most everyone is running a rat race which ignores human qualities. As a result, individuals, families, societies, and the environment are badly affected with many suffers and finally people die with emptiness with many sorrows.

The world needs a radical revolution in thinking, attitudes, recognition, initiatives and talks and actions into a new shift from present paradigm to a new paradigm in the light of sustainable development while maintaining human qualities.

The responsibility of introducing such a sustainable development to the world lies with us i.e. THE PEOPLE (YOU AND ME) When it comes to people, the post important aspect of people. It would be non-other than THE MIND in association with its WISDOM POWER.

With my 35 year experience and research, it has been realized that the society needs a dedicated formal social movements to address the above key areas (CORNER STORNS FOR SUSTANABLE DEVELEPMENT – THE HUMAN QUALITIESS AND THE HUMAN MIND.)

Then further exploring the world, it has been revealed that the whole innovative initiatives in order to meet the above mission could be identified from three areas as MINDFULLNESS , HUMANITY AND SOCIAL WELLBEING.

Therefore PEOPLE’S LIFE FUNDATION (GURRANTTE) LIMITED has been established in 2020 with tremendous support from the Bosath Matha Vipassana Mediation Center in Kandy and my friends, family members and interested stakeholders. Thank you very much my dear all for your support to make it reality.

Finally I kindly request everyone to extend your fullest support further to reach the crystal clear PLF’s Vision in all the possible ways and means for a sustainable development in people, society and Environment.
