Our Vision
Those who are searching for the supreme happiness in their lives’ walk through the right path towards the ultimate freedom and achieve liberation from all sufferings in this very life.
Our Mission
People living in this world are constantly working hard to get rid of all kinds of mundane sufferings of life. The modern science is always trying to give an answer to this question by introducing new inventions with unending research, but have not come across an ultimate solution. Day by day the problems are getting more complicated. Buddha has found the way to get rid of all sufferings and his teaching on the path to freedom is documented in the tipitaka. But it is not easily understood by the layman just reading the text. Only a good teacher who has practiced the path to freedom successfully and experienced the teachings can explain in a systematic way for novices to understand. Siri Amathagavesi Foundation was established to take you to an experienced teacher. He is Ven. Panditha Waturugama Nanadasiri thero. Nandasiri thero teaches Saddha Seela, Samadhi, Panna sections with meditation through a very pragmatic approach and proven that an ordinary man is able to understand the path to nirvana. Over 12000 laypeople from Sri Lanka and abroad have followed his teachings and have improved their intelligence to understand the life and how to overcome the suffering.
