කොළඹ විශ්වවිද්‍යාලයේ කලා පීඨයට පිවිසෙන තැන බිත්තියෙහ රඳවා තිබූ ‘සිත් කවිය’ ළඟ දහසකුත්

 දෙනා මොහොතකට නතර වුණා.ඒ යනෙන ගමන් එහි අලවා ඇති අපූරු කවි ගෙත්තම් කාලෝචිත සටහන් ආදිය කියවන්න. පීඨයේ ශිෂ්‍ය ශිෂ්‍යයාවන්ගේ අදහස් සනිටුහන් වූ මේ බිත්ති පත්තරය ගැන විශ්වවිලද්‍යාලයේ නොදන්න කෙනෙක් නැහැ.

ඒ තරමටම මෙය ජනප්‍රියයි. මේ ‘සිත් කවිය’ අද්දර නෙත් නතර වූ පිරිස අතර රචිතා වාකිෂ්ඨ නම් තරුණියක් හිටියා. එම පීඨයේම ඉගෙන ගන්නා ඇය, උතුරු කොනේ (ගුණදාස කපුගේ) ඇතුළු ගීත රැසක් රචනා කළ චන්ද්‍රා වාකිෂ්ඨයන්ගේ දියණිය. රචිතා, සිත් කවියේ අදහස් කියෙවේ බොහොම ආසාවෙන්. ඒ ඇය කවියට, ගීතයට බොහෝ සෙයින් ප්‍රේම කළ හින්දා. සිත් කවියෙහි රචිතාගේ යහළුවකුගේ සිතැඟි විවිධ මාතෘකා යටතේ පළ වුණා. එහෙත් එන්න එන්න ඔහුගේ අදහස් ලියවුණේ යොවුන් ආදරය ගැන විතරයි. ඔහු ප්‍රේමවන්තයෙක් වෙලා. ඔහුගේ සිත් දිනා ගත්තිය විශ්වවිද්‍යාලයෙම ශිෂ්‍යාවක්. ඔවුන් දෙපොළගේ ප්‍රේමය කාලයත් සමඟම තීව්‍ර වුණා. විශ්වවිද්‍යාලයේ උප සංස්කෘතිය ඇතුළේ වසරේ හොඳම පෙම්වතුන් යුවළ තෝරනවා. මේ අවුරුද්දට තේරුණේ ඔවුන්.

Sri Lanka:Mass Hysteria cause of School Student Allergy

More than 1,900 schoolchildren of 15 schools in Sri Lanka and five teachers have been treated for a range of symptoms that include skin rashes, vomiting, vertigo and cough during last week due to an allergic reactions while some believe it is as a Mass hysteria.

It originated at the Jinaraja Balika Vidyala in Gampola,Central Province on November 15, 2012  when a 1100 students were rushed to hospital with sudden allergies which range of symptoms that include skin rashes, vomiting, vertigo and cough.

Some of the students who were sent home after initial treatment had to be once again taken to hospital because of fainting bouts and complaints of headaches. Some of them had broken out in skin rashes too.

“About 80% of these students sought treatment following panic reactions. We couldn’t find any signs of rashes but they were complaining of symptoms which we believe could have been psychological,” Central Province Health Director Dr. Shanthi Samarasinghe said.

 “The allergy was present only for a day and the rashes disappeared when the children were treated with simple medications for allergies.

“There were few cases where some students fainted and there were also instances when the students vomited but we still couldn’t come to a conclusion regarding the factors that caused these reactions,” she said.

After that incident on November 16, there were more reports of students from other parts of the country showing similar symptoms. 60 of the Somadevi Primary school of Weligepola, Balangoda and more than 60 students from Walagamba Maha Vidyalaya were hospitalised while more than 200 students of Nugawela Boys’ School, Kandy had shown symptoms of allergic reactions and admitted to the hospital.

Doctors stated that students who were brought to hospital showed symptoms of coughing, vomiting and itchiness.

Meanwhile Dr. Harischandra Gambheera, a psychiatrist attached to the National Institute of Mental Health, Angoda, said that there was a possibility that these symptoms could have been the result of Dissociative State also referred to as mass hysteria.

“This is common among children especially girls and that it could spread among a group, all complaining of similar symptoms” he said.

What is Mass hysteria?

Mass hysteria—other names include collective hysteria, group hysteria, or collective obsessional behavior—is the spontaneous manifestation of the same or similar hysterical physical symptoms by more than one person.

A common manifestation of mass hysteria occurs when a group of people believe they are suffering from a similar disease or ailment. Sometimes referred to as mass psychogenic illness or epidemic hysteria. (Wikipedia)

The Medical Research Institute (MRI) is expected to release its findings on the recent outbreak of 'allergic reaction' soon.MRI officials believed the reaction to be caused by some insects or mites.

Sri Lanka Health Ministry has taken steps to deploy a team consisting of specialist doctors at each school where children were affected by an allergic reaction, in order to carry out medical tests.

 “There is no doubt it is mass hysteria. Because it is communicable and has spread among children of the same age group, even in schools far apart,” said The Consultant Psychiatrist and Clinical Director of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), Dr Harischandra Gambhira .

“They should not be admitted to hospitals, given medical drugs or treatment for their so called allergic reactions, since this will only compound this problem. Instead, they should be clearly told that it is psychological,” he said.
