I, VEN. UVATHANNE SUMANA…………….. I, SENAVIRATHNE MUDIYANSELAGE CHANDANA PRADEEP PRIYADARSHANA SENAVIRATHNE was born on o5th October ,1971 as the first child of the Couple Seneviratne Muiyanselage Wijeratne Bandara Seneviratne Nidangoda and Wijekoon Mudiyanselage Chandralatha Nidangoda ,resident at Kalupahana Walauwa situated at Kandapalla East Grama Seva Division Haldummulla Divisional Secretariat, Haputale Electorate , Badulla District of Uva Province. I who am Piyadharshana then attached to the sister Yamuna Sanjeewanee Nidanagoda and brother Lalith Seneviratne Nidangoda received my primary education at Kalupahana Maha Vidyalaya. I was ordained a monk and entered the monkhood on the 27th July, 1988 at Sri Bodhirajaramaya Maligawatte Colombo under the tutelage of Ven. Dharma Keerthie Sri Walallawita Sadananda Adikarana Sanganayaka of both Colombo and Kalutara Chapters after the name Ven. Uvathanne Sumana Samanera under registered no.32391. When I entered the monkhood as a member of Siyam Maha Nikaya of Malwatte Chapter the post of Mahanayake of the said Nikaya was held by Most Ven. Rambukwelle Sri Vipassi Dharmakkitha Vipassabidhana Maha Thero. I was elevated to the Upasampada position on 23rd of June 1991 at Kandy Malwatte Maha Viharawasi Ven. Aluthgama Sri Dharmarakshitha Piyadassi Dhammananda ,and Upasapan No. 33636. I entered Colombo Vidayodaya Pirivena for my higher education and succeeded at the Pracheena mid –final examination and studied for the Rajakeeya Pandhitha Degree. Thereafter, I studied for my higher education from Sole University of Korea and American University over there. I was persuaded to get involved in National Religious affairs and activated by my tutor Ven. Walallawita Sri Saddananda who was resident as the Chief incumbent of both the Walallawita Sri Suvisuddaramaya and Colombo Sri Bodhirajaramaya. When Sri Lanka Freedom Party was split into two and when civic rights were deprived of my tutor paved the way to Mrs. Bandaranaike to open the Head Quarters of her party at Bodhirajarama Viharaya. In 1983 under the Jayawardene regime the Kalu Juliya was organized and under cover of flase charges my tutor was imprisoned. At the time I was invaluably compelled to handle all the religious, social and political activities over there. In this manner my attention was drawn to the religious, social and political activities on the example direction and persuasion set by my tutor. Our Colombo vihara Sri Bodhirajaramaya at maligawatte was held in esteem as a progressive headquarters in the Colombo area during the 80’s we had to undergo revenge and retaliation the face of the state as a prey to them. At the time our viharadhipathy was at the age of senile decay thereby the background of the religious ,social and political responsibility was burdened on me. At the General and Presidential Election of 1994 I was responsible to pursue the activation for the victory of Madam Chandrika Bandaranayake. After the unexpected defeat of the General Election on 05th December 2001 I was entrusted with the re-organization of the party activities and I was fortunate enough to win over at the official election of the Sri Lanka Nidahas Bhikku Peramuna with a majority of Votes and hold the post of secretary of over there. There was a strong challenge for the S.L.F.P. to win over at the General Election held on 02nd April 2004. Under the circumstances Jathika Deshamamka Balawega was build up at our Walalliwita Sri Suvisuddharama Viharaya through the influence of Dr. Sarath Amunugama, Dinesh Gunawardena and Anura Bandaranayake where I was entrusted with the position of Chair –person and the president. Thereafter at the 2004 General Election it created history for a victory by an alliance of S.LF. party and J.V.P. I intervened in this matter to face this challenge and invited Dr. Sarath Amunugama, Dinesh Gunawardena , Wimal Weerawansa and Athauda Seneviratne for preliminary talks to Walallawita Sri Suvisuddaramaya. Since the talks followed was fruitful we succeeded and building up the U.A.F.P. The discussion were held in esteem at the B.M.C.H. On 12th March 2004, two thousands (2000) bhikkhus(Budhist Monks) were invited to B.M. C. H. to organize the Sanga Society. Thereafter ,in April 2004 the U.A.F.P. came victorious at the General Election. Thereafter I was appointed as adviser to S.L. B.C. N. T.Net. work ,United press Co.Ltd. (Lake House ) such state organization to elicit any irregularities in the religious atmosphere. The year 2005 dawned .There was a demand by the United National Front for a Presidential Election which was turned down by the Madam President. Madam Bandaranayaka was against proposing the name of then Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapakse as the Presidential Candidate. Then I was instrumental in proposing his name with the assistant of Mr. Sampath Tennakoon and present Presidential Advisor Vajira Irugal Bandara together with popular mediaman Raja Katugampola. The S.L.F.P. leadership who opposed my view held two disciplinary inquiries against me and I was exonerated. At the time, J.V. P was out of the Government since they were against the Tsunami Relief Board Act .Though Mr. Mahinda Rajapakse candidature for presidential election there as a great challenge against his victory by a triangular fight. There was a certain movement created in the country by means of posted to get the presidential candidature to Mr. Mahinda Rajapakse and as a result we had to impress the regional S.L F.P. confederation. I took stern action to develop this state of affairs. When it reached the national level Mr. Mahinda Rajapakse was able to get over. The principles under the banner of Mahinda Chintana was set out by an advisory council of 15 members where an intelligence unit was formed .Dr. Jagath Wellawatta was entrusted with the responsibility of firming more than three hundred (300) units to meet this purpose. In addition Bikkhu Society was made aware of these principles an organized workshops in eighteen (18) districts. I fulfilled this responsibility by inviting five thousands (5000) Bhikkhus to Sugathadasa Indoor Stadium on 8th November 2005 and I was responsible for organizing the Jaya Piritha for the victory of Mr. Mahinda Rajapakse at the Indoor Stadium. Under the circumstances Mr. Mahinda Rajapakse won over on 18.11.2005 with the whole hearted support of J.V.P Thereafter on the advice of the Hon. President and Hon. Basil Rajapakse under the ministry of Nation  Building  I intervened and contributed my mite for number of project  such as Gama Neguma, Maga Neguma and Gamin Gamata.
