ආනන්ද නාලන්ද සහෝදරත්වය

අප්‍රමාදව කටයුතු කරන්නටත් චරිතවත්ව නුවණ බැබළවීමටත් මුලින්ම ඉගෙන ගත්තා නම් ඉගෙන ගත්තේ පාසලෙන් සහ සහෝදර පාසැල උණු ආනන්දයෙන්. අපිට පුංචි කාලයේදී ට්‍රිප් ගියහම, සාදයකදී, විශේෂ උත්සව වලදී නිතරම වගේම මුලින්ම හම්බවුණේ අපේ තාත්තලාගේ ආනන්දයේ හරි නාලන්දයේ හරි යාළුවන්ගේ දරුවෝ. ඒ බොහොමයක් දරුවොත් පසු කාලීනව ඉගෙන ගත්තේ මේ ශ්‍රේෂ්ඨ පාසල් මවුන් තුරුලේ.

සුලෝහිත වර්ණයන්ගෙන් ඔප නැංවුණු පාසල් ධජයන් වලට උරුමකම් කියන කොතෙකුත් පාසල් දිවයින පුරා විසිර තිබුනත් ආනන්දයටත් නාලන්දයටත් සුලෝහිතයන් කියන නම සින්නක්කරවම උරුම වෙන්නේ ලංකා ඉතිහාසය පුරාවට පාසල් දෙකෙන්ම ලොවට පසක් කරන ලද කල්‍යාණ මිතුදමට එහායින් ගිය සහෝදරත්වය නිසාමයි.

ඉතින් පාසලට එන්න කලින්ම ඒ සහෝදරත්වය, මිත්‍රත්වය අපිට වැලිකෙලියේ පටන්ම දායාද වෙලා තිබුනා කිව්වොත් නිවැරදියි. ටිකෙන් ටික අත පය උස් මහත් වේගෙන එනකොට පාසලේ විවිධ විෂය සමගාමී සහ විෂය පරිභාහිර ක්‍රියාකාරකම් වලදී පාසලින් පිටතට යන පළවෙනි ආරාධනා පත්‍රය හැමතිස්සෙම සුලෝහිතයන්ට යවන්න අපිට කවුරුවත් නොකිව්වත් ඒක එහෙම සිද්ධ වුනේ ඒ ලෙන්ගතුකම් ඒ බැඳීම් ඒ තරමටම ගැඹුරුයි වගේම ගලේ කෙටුවා වගේ පුංචි කාලෙදිම අපේ හිත් වලට කා වැදිච්ච නිසා වෙන්න ඇති. පාසැල් දෙකටම ශිෂ්‍යත්ව හෝ කඩයිම් විභාග සමත් වෙලා ආපු යාළුවන්ටත් මේ දේ වැළඳ ගන්න එච්චර අපහසු නොවුනේ එකම ගමෙන් හෝ ප්‍රදේශයෙන් මේ සහෝදර පාසල් දෙකට වෙන් වුනු ඒ අයගේ යාළුවනුත් හිටපු නිසයි.

මඟ තොටේ යන වෙනත් පාසල් බස් රථ දහසක් මැද වුවත්, 'සුලෝහිත' බස් රථයකින් විහිදෙන ඒ අපරිමිත සහෝදරත්වයේ රිද්මය හා සම කළ හැකි අන් යමක් නැහැයි කිව්වොත් හරි කියල හිතෙනවා. 'සම ජාතියේ කුරුල්ලන් එකම අත්තක ලගින්නා සේම', එකම අරමුණක් සහ එකම අභිමානයක් හද දරාගත් සුලෝහිතයෝ කොතැනත් එකට රොක් වුනා. සියවසක කාලයක් පුරා ගොඩනැඟුණු මේ සදාතනික බැඳීම කෙතරම් ද යත්, අද වන විට ලෝකය ආනන්දය සහ නාලන්දය දකින්නේ පාසල් දෙකක් ලෙස නොව, එකම රුධිරයකින් බැඳුණු එකම සහෝදරත්වයක සලකුණ ලෙසයි.

මංගල්ලයක් අවමන්ගල්ලයක් කියල නැහැ ඕනම දේකදී තමන්ගේ පාසලේ යාළුවට පස්සේ මුළින්ම උදව්වට ආවේ සුලෝහිතයෙක්. කාළයාගේ අවෑමෙන් පාසල් සමය නිම කරලා රැකියාවට ගියහමත් අපි මුලින්ම හෙව්වේ බැලුවේ කව්ද ඉන්න සුලෝහිත ප්‍රජාව කියල. මොකද ඒක අපිට කවදත් කොතැනත් පන්නරයක් වෙච්ච සහ වෙන නිසා.

ඉතින් පාසැලින් නික්මෙලා දැන් අවුරුදු 21ක්. ජීවන ගමනෙත් දශක 4ක් දුර ඇවිල්ලත් තාම ඒ සුලෝහිත බැඳීම් අපි අතරේ රැඳිල තියෙන එක ගැන හරිම සන්තෝසයක් වගේම පට්ට ආදරයක් ගෞරවයක් ඒ හැම සහෝදරයෙක් ගැනම දැනෙනවා. ඒක සමරන්න ඔන්න මේ පාර අපි One Day Big Match එකේදී කටයුතු සංවිධානය කරලා තියෙනවා. විස්තරේ නම් දැන් හැමෝම වගේ දන්නවා. ඉතින් 2005 සුලොහිතයෝ ඔක්කෝටම ආරාධනා කරනවා එදාට "United Maroons 2005" tent එකට ටිකට් එකක් අරන් සම්බන්ධ වෙන්න කියල.
