Backed by Research with [Global Leaders]
Research on introspection (the original practice of mindfulness) at ManoLead is supported by the initial research conducted by Dr. Gamini Hewawasam to identify the influence of the practice on leadership. The initial research included a 3-month long mindfulness workshop for 24 individuals who held leadership positions globally and locally (in the United States) and resulted in remarkable findings.
OUR PATH
Mindfulness is the [Seventh Step] of the
Eight Step Process
Our practice of mindfulness is a progressive ascending of a flight of steps in the Supernormal Eight-fold Way known as The Noble Eightfold Path (ariya attangika magga). Aligning with Bhante Punnaji’s teaching, ManoLead uses the word Supernormal instead of the common term “Normal” because of the term ‘Ariya,” used by the Buddha means something above the normal. Our services and people set us apart. Everything we do to transform leaders are meticulously planned down to the finest details.

ARAGALA ADAHAS
[Ideas from the struggle]
Currently, Sri Lanka is undergoing a severe economic crisis as a result of state mismanagement which has affected every aspect of life among the citizens. A key reason for the mismanagement in Sri Lanka is the lack of proper leadership. As people are struggling to replace the leadership, ManoLead is conducting a research on what people currently view as proper leadership and how supernormal leadership can resolve the crisis. As a part of GB Hewawasam17:55 the research, ManoLead is collecting thoughts from people of all walks of life and applying the concept of introspection to educate people to recognize the qualities of an effective leader. The goal of this research is to enable people to become supernormal leaders themselves and help them select supernormal leaders when the opportunity is presented.
Psychotherapy for Leaders
The Art of [Mindful] Leader
Conflict can be resolved only by undoing the personalization (anupadana) – Buddha (MN.24)
The cognitive gets subordinated to the affective. The cognitive splits in to two – one taking the side of emotions and the other taking the side of thinking. Conflicts arose because people tend to personalize either the affective emotions or the cognitive reasoning. The power rested on the side personalized.
