(UTV|COLOMBO) – The most important thing in our life should be the purification of mind for the betterment as well as the protection of human beings. Any act, which is harmful to society, first germinates in a human mind. Consequently, the salvation and betterment of human beings could only be attained in an environment of good thoughts where moral values are strengthened, stated President Maithripala Sirisena, in his message marking Ramadan.
The message added: “It is the noble message of giving priority to peace with honour conveyed to humanity by the Islam devotees when they celebrate Ramadan or Eid-ul-Fitr after observing a fast for a month, and making sacrifices. It is a message common to the entire universe. The betterment of all human beings depend on an environment where each and everyone understands the real meaning of such a message.
“The Ramadan rituals show us we can create a peaceful living environment while promoting peace and reconciliation in the present day complex world, only through being sensitive to the others’ sentiments, while being honest to oneself.
“I extend my best wishes to all Islam devotees who celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr, which has such meaningful vision that addresses the common humanity transcending religious limitations,” the message stated.
