The Importance of museums

Sri lanka is a country which can boast of a rich cultural heritage from time immemorial. In such a country the dynamic role that museums play in infusing vigour and life to the culture and history of land is very significant. Museums play a silent but a very dominant role to maintain the culture and civilisation of mankind.A national museum may bedefined as a central institution which imparts knowledge of the past to those living in the present. A national museum serves as a repository for the collection, exhibition and study of objects of artistic, scientific, historial and eduational value too. It eduates the people and stimulates their interest in their national heritage’ It also attracts the attention of growing young minds to the glorious riches of the past. presently only a very few have cultivated the habit of visiting museums. Therefore it is timely that mass media strive hard to focus the importance of national museums in the cultural life of the nation, Especially the younger generation should be made to understand the values of museums even though we are living in the computer age today.

wAR AND PEACE

We hawe often seen the brothers and sisters in the same household quarrelling with each other. thus,.through hatred nations who live under the shelter of the same sky too, clach . sometimes the objective of excelling one another makes persons and nations insane. this makes them neglect their human qualities and moral values . their friendly attitude vanish and they become enemies . war means destruction the one who wages war upon another makes way to the destruction not only of his opponent but also of himself. if war means such distruction what is the purpose of getting involved in such a disastrous activity? this is a question that every human being should reflect in his own soul
