Progress of Buddhist Education
On the occasion of the diamond jubilee of the Buddhist Theosophical Society it is not inappropriate to get in to reverse gear in time and travel back to that day, sixty years ago, when at a residence called “Redcliff” in slave Island, Colombo, on June 17, 1880, about forty people got together and formed the Colombo Branch of the Theosophical Society. The object they had in view was the promotion of Buddhism by guarding it from the attacks of those who professed other religions (a Pastime very popular those days), by strengthening Buddhists in their faith and in the practice of Buddhist morals and by the spreading and teaching of Buddhist doctrines.     
 
Delegation
  

On May 16, 1880 Colonel Olcott and Mndame Blavatsky (founders of the Theosophical Society in America) with a delegation consisting of Europeans, Hindus and Parsees had landed in Ceylon at Galle and during the subsequent two months had been most enthusiastically received by the Buddhist people of such parts of the Island they visited which included Colombo, Kandy, Panadura, Kalutara, Welitara, Matara, Dodanduwa, Gampola, etc.
When under the inspiration of this Theosophical delegation and with the active encouragement of all the leading Buddhist prelates the society was inaugurated it began the preaching of scripture weekly at the headquarters of the Society by learned monks of different sects. There were also lectures of various religions subject by layman to large audiences.

The paper called the “Sandaresa” was establishea for the purpose of Buddhist propaganda and proved a commercial success. Later the Society Published a journal in English called “The Buddhist.”

Originally, meetings of the society were held at the business premises of Mr. H.A.Fernando and Mr. Thepanis Perera in the Pettah.

In 1881, February I, the society Leased out 54, Mali ban Street, on a rental of Rs. 500 a Year – evidently sign of prosperity.

In 1881, April I, the society moved to No. 71, Second Cross Street, Pettah, paying a rental of Rs. 30 a month. 

It was 1885, in May, that the society brought the present premises – No, 60 and 61, Maliban Street, and 29, 30, Beira Street (now Norris Road) for Rs. 6,000. The money was partly borrowed from Mr. Thedoris Fernando and partly from the Buddhist National Fund. This loan was paid back with the money raised from till collections and at fancy bazaars which formed a feature of the collection campaigns of those days. The first fancy bazaar was held on December 23, 1883, and it is recorded that at the start there was much opposition to this type of money collection. Goods for these bazaars were received not only from all over Ceylon but also from Siam, Burma, England and America.

 
Education Work
  

However successful the Society’s Propaganda work it was soon found that the object of the Society could not be achieved without tacking part in educational work.

When Col. Olcott arrived in Ceylon there were only four Buddhist Schools in the Island. Two of these (boys’ and girls’) were at Dodanduwa, started by the Ven. Piyaratana Tissa. The other two (also boys’ and girls’) were at Panadura started by a local Buddhist Society. The total Attendance of all the 4 schools was 246 children. At this time there were 805 Christian Schools with a total attendance of 78,086 children. The Buddhist Schools received a grant of Rs. 532.70 whereas the Christians schools raked in no less than Rs.174, 420.00.

In 1881, on the full moon day of Vesak, Colonel Olcott, with the whole hearted support of the most prominent prelates. Inaugurated at kelaniya a Buddhist National Fund for the general promotion of the religious and secular education of Buddhist children and the dissemination of Buddhist Literature. The first Cheque (for Rs.100) was handed over to the Colonel for this fund by Mr. R.A. Mirando immediately after the speech. At the time the Society had 87 members -66 from Colombo and the others from Moratuwa, Negombo, Pamankada, Rathmalana and Nuwara Eliya.

By 1886 the Buddhist National funds Collected Rs. 12,938.62½.

On February 13, 1881, a Sunday school was started at the Society’s premises in 54, Maliban Street from May of that year Mr. C.W.Leadbeater who had come to Ceylon with Colonel Olcott was in charge of this Sunday school. Other Sunday Schools were also started in kotahena, Borella, Maradana, Barber Street, Messanger Street, Slave Island, Peliyagoda and Panchikawatte.
 
Ananda College     
  

On 1886, November I, the Sunday school in the pettah was converted into the Pettah Buddhist English School, which letter became Ananda College. This was started with 37 Pupils with Mr. C.W.Lead beater as honorary headmaster. Hikkaduwa Sri Sumangala Mahanayaka Thero and Rev.Mohittiwatta Gunananda Unnanse Made a public appeal to Buddhists to support the school before this school was started. The salaries of teachers were paid by collection among the members.

By 1890 there were 160 pupils and a staff of seven teachers. The curriculum included English up to the 8th standard, Sinhalese language and, Grammar, Latin and French and on Saturday, Geography for one hour. There were several Christians among the pupils. There was a boarding house attached to the school and it is recorded with a certain measure of snobbish pride that even very high class Kandyan families had sent their children to the school.

By 1890 the Society had established, in addition to the pettah English School a Girls’ English School and Boys’ English school in Kandy and Boys’ Sinhalese School at hatton,Gampola , Matale, hatuwapiyadigama, Horana,and Rathnapura, and Girls’ Schools at Ambalangoda, Panandura,Pattiya, Wekade, Madapathe and Kehelwatta.

During the first twenty years after Col Olcott had arrived in the island the progress made in education was surprisingly successful in spite of the opposition shown by Government and the missionaries to the movement.
 
Official Frowns
 

In official eyes the Buddhist educational movement was an offspring of factious opposition which had to be crushed out of its existence by repressive measures. Such arbitrary regulation as the quarter mile clause – which by the way was brought into operation with retrospective effect – was the outcome of the views entertained by the department in regard to Buddhist Schools.

The missionaries looked upon the movement at first with contemptuous indifference and with a shrug of the shoulders. Then they began to tack notice of it and referred to it as the’’so – called Buddhist revival.”

“We need these prayers and this help to enable us to cope successfully with forces of the enemy that are spreading all around us. Buddhism is multiplying its agents and activities in opposing the progress of the Gospel of Our lord Jesus Christ”, said a Wesleyan appeal in 1899.

The Chairman of the Wesleyan mission in the Galle District wrote in the London “Methodist Times” in 1903 as Follow:-

The Buddhist theosophical Society, which is largely inspired and led by

Europeans and Americans is promoting the opening of the rival school and the conducting of preaching campaigns to draw away the children placed under our care by their parents. Many children have been withdrawn and have cost us loss in the matter of Government grants.”
The first twenty years can be said to be the probationary period of Buddhist education in Ceylon. And the immense amount of work done during this time in spite of the vehement opposition of the missionaries who had so much influence on Government and Government itself which was solely Christian in sentiment, amazes us today.

The progress made during the first years can be judged by the following figures of registered Buddhists schools from 1888 to 1898 taken from a Government report:-

All the school in the above list did not necessarily belong to the Society. A number of public – spirited individuals had come forward in the wake of Society’s success and started Buddhist schools. And of the Society’s schools a good many were not registered for many years.

In 1898 there were 11,577 children in Buddhist schools. The Roman Catholics had 30,425; Wesleyans 22,808; Church of Mission 14,110. Thus Buddhists had the fourth place in regard to the number of pupils in their schools.

In 1899 there were 134 schools in the list of Buddhist schools with an attendance of 15,490 children of which 92 were registered getting a grant of Rs. 20,721.70.
 
Missionary Action
  

In 1900 the number of schools increased to 150 in the Buddhist Theosophical Society’s list of which 120had been registered. The grants received amounted to Rs. 25,000, but the Society expended Rs. 34,000 besides Rs.15, 000 spent by local manager and committees.

By 1902 the success of Buddhist work was so alarming to the Christians that the church missionary Society passed a resolution in that year against the employment of Christians who had at any time served in Buddhist schools.

But this does not seem to have made much impression. For we find that the following year the number of society’s school had risen to 174, drawing grants amounting to Rs. 47,143091.

No less than 185 schools of the Society drew a sum of Rs. 48,502.90 from government by way of grant in 1904.

That same year the Rev. G.B.Ekanayake writing in “East and West “ showed a remarkable change in the attitude of the Christians church toward the Buddhist revival. The contemptuous indifference which in the ealier stage assigned to the revival an ephemeral existence and the violent opposition subsequently directed against it, particularly against its educational aspect, gave way to a more reasonable and generous frame of mind disposed to recognize facts and give credit where credit was due.Mr. Ekanayaka
did not hestitate to admit that the current of Christian’s conversion had been effectually stemmed by the Buddhist revival. The barrenness of missionary effort called for energetic action, according to Mr. Ekanayake.

In 1907 we find there were 215 schools of the Society of which 186 with an attendance of 23,975 had registered. In 1909 the number of school in the list went up to 224 of which 207were registered getting grants amounting to Rs. 74,740.02.
 
Crisis
  

The year saw a crisis in the life of the then twenty-nine-year old Society. On account of difference of opinion on  matters connected with election of office bearers the Society was split into two rival camps and work was greatly disorganized.         
There was even an attempt to start a rival society. Better counsel prevailed and the attempt did not succeed. Mr. M.U.Moore was appointed General Manager of Schools. The Society was heavily in dept. And a proposal was made o mortgage the Headquarters and realize Rs. 60,000 but this was defeated.

A donation of Rs.9, 781.19 from Mrs. Annie Besant and subscriptions amounting to Rs. 4,158.00 from the public helped to ease the situation. A large number of teachers donated to the Society a part of their salaries.

The Society’s report for the year 1910 revealed that the Society had up to this date incurred a loss of Rs.60250.93 on the working of its schools the amount of the loss increased year after year because new schools were being established and the exiting ones enlarged .A great deal of money had to be spent for the providing of new buildings.

In 1914 the Society managed 230 schools

 
Hectic Year
  

And by the hectic year of 1915, the year of the Riots, there were 249 schools which received grants of Rs. 88,336.75.

From 1915 to1918 the society chose not to have a president and the affairs of the Society were managed by Secretary and a managing committee.

A statement prepared at this time shown that the society had incurred a loss of Rs. 121,169.40 up to that time.

In 1915 the publication of the “Sandaresa” was prohibited by Government order. The books of the society were removed, and the offices searched. All grants due were stopped.

At a meeting in August 27 with the permission of the Brigadier – General, Mr. W.A. de Silva was appointed General Manager of schools; he was able to get back the confiscated grant after great agitation.

Nevertheless in October, 1915 the Society was registered under the Societies Ordinance of 1891. The following signed the application for registration:-

Messrs. W.A. de Silva, F.R. Senanayake, C. Batuwantudave, G. Robert Zoysa, C.P Gunawardana, D.D. Pedris, Thomas Rodrigo , A.S.F. Wijegunawardene and D. S.S.wickremarathne.

The same year the Society inangurated the Buddhist Education fund with Mr. Arthur V. Dias as Secretary.

In 1916, Mrs. Jeramias Dias made an endowment of a lakh of rupees for a college for higher education of Buddhist girl.

By 1917, the Buddhist Educational fund collection amounted to Rs. 11,941. The same year the Buddhist Girls’ College (now Visakha Vidyalaya) was started with the funds provided by Mrs.Jeramias Dais
 
Special Donations
  
From 1916 to 1920, the following special donations were received by the Society as shown in the reports:-
         R. C.
Mr. W.A. de Silva
82,600.00
Mr. F.R. Senanayake
29,500.00
Mr. Arthur V.Dias
26,100.00
Mr. D.P.A.Wijewardene              
12,400.00
Dr. C.A. Hewavitarne
9,561.00
Mr.D.C. Senanayeke
2,500.00
Mr. D.S. senanayake
2,300.00
Total
164,961.95
   

The total amount of donations received from all sources was Rs. 98,400 in 1916 – 18. Rs. 67,661.52 in 1919 and Rs. 17,656.50 in 1920.

There was then a sudden drop to Rs. 4,888.23 In 1921. Rs. 4,690.98 in 1922 and Rs. 3,351.17 in 1923.

The absence of large donation here after made it difficult for the Society to carry on without getting into serious debt and do its work in the efficient manner in which it had up till then done it.

In 1923 Mr. T. Arnolis Fernando who died that year left his whole estate worth about Rs. 20,000 to the Society.

It is not necessary to narrate in detail events connected with the society within memory of even the younger generation.

Recent times have not been very kind to the society and the original confidence the public had, was shaken to a certain extent until once again it is coming back to its own.

But one event must needs be set down.

Buddha Mandira
  

The present Bauddha mandira or Buddhist Theosophical Society’s Head quarters was begun in 1926.

Thirteen Buddhist ladies and gentleman laid the foundation stones of the new building on March 27, 1926. The original design was a three storeyed edifice but later this was reduced to two.
The Bauddha Mandira was declared open by Sir Herbert Stanley on January 28, 1929 and was completed at a total cost of Rs. 110,000. This amount was collected partly from public subscription (Rs.46.000) and partly from a series of pinkamas held at the Headquarters (Rs.42, 000). The balance was paid off in 1936 by contributions collected on February 17, 1936, at Pinkama to celebrate Olcott Day and the completion of the Building.

Foremost among those who worked untiringly to achieve this memorable work were Mr. W.H. w. Perera and Mr. K.D.M. Perera.

Originally Building was intended to be a center of all Buddhist activities where work of all Buddhist Societies in the island could find the coordination. It was proposed to have a good reading- room, a guest- room for visitor’s form others parts of the Buddhist world and a large hall for lectures, sermons and meetings.

So far only the Norris road side of the building has been completed. Work in connection with the Maliban farontage is expected to start next year.
