creations:
Bhikkhunis in monastic life and Elephant Drive
  Silumina journalist, Aruni Muthumalie launched her two new books,
Arama and Ali Eththui Athapaththui, recently. Minister Patali Champika

Nandana Atapattu and senior journalist Sundara Nihathamani de Mel spoke
at the launching ceremony.
Arama, describes the practical problems faced by bhikkhunis in
monastic life, in addition to difficulties resulting from lack of
understanding on such matters, such as, religious reconciliation and
human behaviour by the members of the Order.
Her other book, Ali Eththui Atha Paththu, is a short narrative of
former Wildlife Dept Deputy Director, Dr. Nandana Atapattu's experiences
of tracking wild jumbos, and also an interesting account of the
