It is of paramount importance that a house in which one lives is kept in such a way that a religious atmosphere is created. The blissful eye of the gods and goddesses is cast upon a home in accordance with the conduct of its inhabitants. Gods are of two devisions; those who like the good deeds and conduct and those who like the ill. When there is a religious atmosphere at home, it is the well intentioned gods that are attracted to that place.They like the good deeds and as a result , the blessings of them fall upon the members of the house.

Create a Religious Atmosphere at Home

To protect such a place, various help sources are supplied.Nevertheless it could vary in accordance with the behaviour of the dwellers in the house.The Gods accompanying the four gods (Sathara waram), who are in charge of the four directions , fullfill the needs of the humans who preserve the fiveprecepts (pansil).They are on watch especially on Poya Days for those.

- The shrine room at home Almost in every house, there has been a shrine room for Buddha. It has been a long time tradition. It is important to have a shrine room either inside or outde the house. In past, in most houses, it was in front of the house outside to it. Today, the shrine room can be seen mostly inside the house. There is no harm in this. When placing the Buddha statue inside the house, most find it difficult in deciding to which side it should be placed. In placing the shrine room or the Buddha statue inside it, The directions north, north east and south west are more suitable and also there is no harm in placing the Buddha statue in what ever direction convenient. The most important thing is to keep the place in a sacred state contrary to an artistic object or place.

- Conducting religious observances. It is essential to conduct religious observances towards the Buddha statue at home. Performing this at an exact particular time leads to the well functioning of the normal household duties too. It is very important if all the members can engage in religious observances together. If there are children engaged in education, it is important for them to engage in religious observances prior to their educational works. It is important to perform these religious duties in a particular systematic manner.In occasions where food and water is offered as the alms to Buddha, there is no rule that says it must be conducted on a daily basis. If there are to be any specialities in the alms offering, it is better to plan it in accordance with the average household duties. As well as offering alms, it is important to tidy the place before and afterwards.If there are several members in the house, it is important to conduct the ritual of lightening the oil lamp for Buddha in such a manner that everone shares the act each day. The amount of time spent on religious duties each day could be based on the convenience of the members in the house.

- Is it suitable to chanting Pirith at home? It is more suitable for the members of the house to go near the shrine room in order to chant Pirith. It is a good practice to chant any Pirith Suthra which one

Page 22: Home & living Magazine November 2013 Edition

2012 November22

prefers in the Pirith Book with correct articulation. In occasions where Pirith is broadcast or telecast either on radio or television, it is appropriate to let these at home but what is more suitable is to chant them by one self rather than mere listening.Time for chanting of Pirith too can be allocated in accordance with the daily duties at home so that there could be no disturbance for the average household works. Bad conducts such as smoking, using liquor or other harmful drugs at home is unsuitable and it could attract various unseen evil forces outside into home and this will ultimatetly cause the illbeing of the dwellers of the particular house.Since a house is not a temple, it is the duty of the members to conduct the other household chores separatedly and away from the place of worship.

Is it appropriate to invoke merits on the Gods and dead relatives, being at home? Having done the religious observances being at home, invoking merits on the gods and dead relatives should be performed. Unaware of the facts in Dhamma, some consider this inappropriate. By invoking merits on those who expect them, one can expect progress in his or her life. When it is not done, it leads to the deterioration. In most occasions, the gods who have a liking for a house premise live with the expectation of merits from its dwellers.So are the dead relatives.In invoking merits, what is more important is

the meaningful conduct of one’s self. No gods or any dead relative have a liking for acceptance of merits from a person who behaves himself into bad conducts and ill behaviour patterns.

- Conduct near the Buddha statue There is a difference between a temple and a house owing to the fact that a house is unlike a temple. But behaving near the Buddha Statue at home with true respect causes the life progress of its inhabitants. It is not suitable to express one’ s hard emotions near the statue.There is no harm in laying or sitting by the statue in order for tranquility of mind. What Buddha preached is not on living in a trouble free world but on living in the world solving one’ s own problems, when and where it occurs, in a harmless manner to the society or the person. When a problem occurs and the mind becomes anxious, it is no harm in asking for help from the Lord Buddha. It is not misconduct to look at the Buddha Statue and ask “May you give a solution to this problem of mine”

In an era where the world cinema is attaining its peaks, it seems that the Sri Lankan cinema industry too is making efforts to move with the trend. Performance of Sri Lankan stars as well as the creative products have immensly contributed towards this. At the same time, certain film theatres in Sri Lanka have been modernized to go parallel with the Hollywood cinema. The best example for this could be The Savoy Thetre in Wellawatta, which was declared open recently.

The hall is equipped with 3D technology. Here, the spectators get the opportunity of watching a film with maximum entertainment.It uses high tech 4k projectors compatible with 3D technology.This is truly a novel experience for the Sri Lankan film fans as they had been so far enjoying “the sellolide illusion” only with2k projectors.They now have got the opportunity of experiencing crystal clear superb scenes from these 4k projectors. This makes the film very much similar to the live experience.Compared to the HD technology , this moves beyond that because it gives the spectators a whole new entertaining experience many times superior in qualitywise.

The Savoy theatre which itself is a massive creation belongs to the EAP Film Company and for the erection and smooth operation of it , the company has spent Sri Lankan rupees 100 millions, a massive investment in deed.Giving the spectators a live and vivid experience and entertaining them to the fullest of 3D experience, the Savoy 3D Theatre has now been able to become the Superb film theatre in the Asian region as well as in Sri Lanka.Its silver screen is unique and no any silver screen so far used in Sri Lankan film theatres or being used now can match its performance.

You can obtain many of the super class services from Savoy 3D film theatre. The service has been categorized in several classes and The Gold Class Service has the highest value.The tickets here are Rs. 650 each and you will get the opportunity of watching the film being in an

extra comfortable seat in the upper floor. The ground floor or the ODC ticket here is sold at a price of Rs. 400. For the first time in Sri Lanka , you can reserve the tickets here online and through this , you can also have a look at your seat and its position even before you enter the cinema.

The first 3D release in the film hall was the Ice Age – 4, which is the fourth of the series which ultimately won the hearts of millions of film fans all over the world. The Savoy 3D cinema has been able to earn a huge income via this venture. It has already been planned now to start screening in the Theatre Savoy the 3D movies produced in Hollywood as well as in Bollywood. This will give the Sri Lankan film fans a whole new world of 3D entertainment with much more entertaining experiences.

A home is something more than a place which we live. It reflects our lifestyle, passions and our identity. People generally hire an architect to design a home to reflect their way of living and at the same time making the maximum out of the land plot. One such home designed by Architect Thisara Thanapathy for the “La Passion” fashion chain outlets’ owner, Mr. Sanjeeva Kumarapperuma, is situated in a narrow sub-road from the road leading to Hokandara form the Thalawathugoda junction.

After buying a 24 perch land in Thalawathugoda, Mr. Kumarapperuma needed to put a home to accommodate his lifestyle. His main requirement was to have spaces for his social life inside the house while preserving the privacy of his personal home. Architect Thisara Thanapathy interpreting his requirements, designed a tropical house wgardens on both sides and the dining at an upper level also opens out to a garden at the same level. These outdoor gardens can be connected with the inside, for an occasion, by simply opening out the door windows.

The guest Lobby is situated at the end of the narrow passage which is convenient to treat outside visitors. The shallow pond, not only acts as an element of aestetic, but also acts as a zoning element. It restricts movement to the servant/ Drivers quarter from the guest lobby.

Other than that, the main feature of thehich could be converted a private party lounge. The double space living opens out to house is that the architect has played with the spatial experiences. The entry way is designed to take the visitor through a narrow passage to a large living. The 12 – 14 step walk to the living through the narrow passage painted in vibrant orange, while feeling the coolness of the cut cement tile floor, is the first experience on entering the house.

The living is a double height space which allows visual links to the dining level.

The Living

Within each spaces of the house, antiques and objects of Feng - Shui are placed in a suitable way to enhance the spatial experience of that particular space. Mr. Kumarepperuma says that he is an antiques lover with a collection of mystical Feng-Shui objects and has displayed only a few collectibles in his home. He is on the go to get a gallery type house designed by Architect Thanapathy only to display these collectibles!

Being popular among many, it is Nilhan Senewirathna who designed

costumes for the film Aba, the film which has earned the highest income in the Sri Lankan Cinema industry so far. It has been 20 years since he entered the field as a fashion designer. Since then, he has contributed to a number of creations and it is Nilhan who worked as the main costume designer in several films and tele dramas, popular even today.

Sanuja Nadeeshani Suranga Basnayaka

INTERIOR THINKING OF A DRESS DESIGNER

“I enter the field as a fashion designer in the year of 1994. After that, I have worked as the main costume designer in many creative productions. It was on my designs that the costume was created in the film Aba, the film which kept the record of earning the highest income earned by a Sri Lankan Sinhala film. Having contributed to such a film, I can say that it is because of my talents and capacity that I got such an opportunity. But, even today, a large number of people in this field don’t know me and they are many.”

Nilhan as a fashion designer is news but it is doubtful whether many know him to his precious collection of statues. In his residence, one finds that there are more than 400 statues belonging to him. Dilhan has a marvellous story on this.

“It is before entering this field I began collecting those statues. It was a time that I had no job. I was engaging in a pooja in Katharagama. My wish was to get a job. I happened to notice a Buddha’ s statue which was there to be sold. It caught my eyes and I bought it.It was there I had a liking to have a collection of mine.Few days after the Poojawa, I actually got a job as a fashion designer. It naturally led me to think that it was the poojawa I did in Katharagama which has given me this job. Ever since, I have been collecting these statues.”

In his collection, Nilhan has paid special attention to Buddha statues belonging to different faiths and to the statues of gods as well.It is no surprise that one who sees this collection imagines it to be a little museum rich with tradition.

In his collection, Nilhan has paid special attention to Buddha statues belonging to different faiths and to the statues of gods as well.It is no surprise that one who sees this collection imagines it to be a little museum rich with tradition.

“I have statues high in value as well, specially those I bought from India. I don’t know why but it is India that I have travelled more frequently and with much diligence.When I have a look on those statues, I get a feeling of tranquility. I also have some ancient photographs. They have high value as well. By now, they have been kept away safely with the doubt that they might get harmed with the prevailing situation.”

Though collected for twenty years merely as a hobby, the feeling of fullfillment that Nilhan derives out of it, as he says is, infinite, which can’t be expressed in words.Nilhan concluded his talk on his collection saying no person or place in Sri lanka possess a collection of statues like this.Nilhan is no doubt a great fashion designer but also he is a kind of veteran in interior designing.Gazing around his residence in which he keeps his statues, we natuarally come across this wonderful blend of colours. His home with different shades gives one an awareness of interior décor and also of colour blend as well as a sense of how different colours could be used in.
