Mahagama Sekera was one of the most versatile of artists this country has produced and one of the leading catalysts in the Sri Lankan artistic renaissance which started in the late 1950s. Often regarded as the nation’s finest poet of the 20th century, Sekera inspired several generations of writers even after his time.

Sekara was often being imitated but never duplicated. As a poet and a lyricist he developed the prevailing tradition and drew upon the language of the folk to up shape a modern lyrical and poetic diction. He was a poet, lyricist, painter, broadcaster, playwright, novelist, short story writer and also became a reputed moviemaker after directing his semi-autobiographical novel Thun Man Handiya as a motion picture.

Mahagama Sekera embraced a vast territory of concerns in his creative process with a sensitivity that recognized humanity and life. Having rendered a great service to the nation through his multifaceted contributions which reflect an ever-continuing significance, he still holds and is very much a part of the contemporary consciousness.

හැම මිනිහෙක්ගේම ඇතුලාන්තයේ මිනිස්සු දෙදෙනෙක් ඉන්න බවත්... තීරණ ගන්නා වෙලාවට මේ ඇතුලෙ මිනිස්සු දෙන්නා අතර ඇති වෙන ගැටුම එළියට පනින බවත් තේරුනා.
හැබැයි බහුතර වෙලාවල් වල... අනිත් මිනිස්සු සතුටු කිරීම වෙනුවෙන් මේ ගැටුමේදී අපි අපිටම පරදිනවා. මට කලින් ලක්ෂ ගානක් ‌මිනිස්සු මේ පොත කියවලාත් ඇති... මේ විදිහටම පැරදිලත් ඇති. උවමනානම් මේ ගැටුමෙන් අපිට දිනන්නත් පුලුවන්.

Wow. What a read. At the end it's the assumptions that we make and acting on them is what causes issues.

But I still can't wrap my head around how he judged a rape victim (that's also based on a rumour). How cheap. He doesn't deserve a woman!

සිහින ලෝක වල, සිහින පසු පස හඹා යන මිනිසුන් ලෞකිකත්වය මුදුන් කොට ගෙන හැල්මේ දිවයයි. සාර්ථකතත්වයේ හිනි පෙත්ත මතට පැමිණ හැරී බලන ඔහු දකින්නේ ඔහුගේ අතින් ගිලිහී ගියේ මිල කල නොහැකි සතුට බවයි.
