REPUTED HISTORICAL SANCTUARY GALEBANDARA FANE IN
KURUNEGALA
There are more
secret places in srilanka and those all has a beautiful chronically stories. I write
this letter to introduce an ancient and uncommon place in Kurunegala. But there
are two places named as Galebandara dewalaya. There are more
difference between those places. Most people said that the Galebandara fane is in
wathhimi road in Kurunegala. We were gone there and it is a place of Islam
devotees. But we wish to go the place that Buddhism devotees. So we went there.
That place is more beautiful and just we entered we got clean air.
Galebandara fane is located near janakala kendraya, nuwara
road in Kurunegala. We met kapu mahaththaya and weda mahaththaya in fane. According
to their information we knew something about fane history. In kuliyapitiya
there is a village called Aswedduma in present we know as Aeswedduma. In ancient
time the father of the prince wathhimi was the king and while he was travelling
in the street he so one belle in the street. So he wants to talk with her and made
her as his queen. So king was wed her. After sometime, even a prince born to
them. He was named Wathhimi. The prince wathhimi was coup and kill as slide the
stone down. After his death, he became an evil and after he became as a god.
The place Galebandara Dewaalaya is very beautiful. It is near to the ethkada
raja maha viharaya.

We can see more small idols with
stalls in everywhere.
There is only one book written
about the Galebandara fane. Madam Wasantha ekanayake in ibbagamuwa, kurunegala
she is the one who written about this fane in 1994. Some university students
are doing research about this ancient place. The kapu mahaththaya and the weda
mahaththaya said us they no need any of advertisements, displaying, propagative
and announcer.
In kurunegala there are two fane. One
is named as wathhimi mosque and other one is called as galebandara fane. More different
histories are in there. In galebandara fane there is “dehi kepeema, yaaga- hooma, white
magic, kattadi shaanthikarma, wina kepeem, yanthra-manthra, etc.and
there are more miracles. kapu mahaththaya is descending in generation of kapu
and weda mahaththaya descending in generation of weda. They are the 5th
generation. Shabda pooja, pancha ththuurya waadanaya, mini handa, udekki handa,
kavi kol Mura gaayanaa, lookaashtaka, invite to god.
