Hello, I'm from Thailand and to me Sri Lanka is always our close related in Buddhism. First Buddhism did greatest prosper in Sri Lanka while slowly declined in India. Then our ancestry, Siam adopted Buddhism from Sri Lanka as Lankawamsa Lastly when Buddhism in Lanka was declining after invasions by western colonizer, Lanka retrieved the lineage back from Siam as Siamwamsa / Upaliwamsa. We are related via Buddhism. I love you Sri Lanka.

Love from Indian budhhist ☸️❤

I am a Tamil Catholic woman, born in Trincomalee. But being from a lower caste, my father had me educated in the Sinhalese medium. I had many Buddhist friends, and often went to the temple with them on Poya days. After that I went to Peradeniya to study medicine, and eventually became a doctor. The fact that I was able to do so is a testament to the tremendous progress that Sri Lanka made after independence. I worked at a hospital in Colombo for a while, and was very happy. I left the country with great sadness at the start of the civil war, and though I often think about it I have never been back there.

The Emperor cracked down when he learned of this along with Intelligence that that region was being used as a staging ground for a Portuguese conquest which never came due to the crackdown itself. In the case of Lanka, Missionaries came as traders and would scout out the island for weak points, relaying the information to the Portugese Navy who conducted a direct invasion. They first hit Colombo to attract Sri Lankan armies then hit Devi Nuwara (near Matara) and laid waste to in order to divert the armies from Colombo to the south, in doing so weakening the Colombo defenses and sacking it.

@@NarasimhaDiyasena The European entry into Asia, commencing with the Portuguese in the 16th century, was driven by two principal factors, namely the aim of colonizing Asian countries for purpose of trade and exploitation of natural resources, and converting the inhabitants of these lands to Christianity. The Portuguese had as one of its primary aims the propagation of the Christian faith in the newly ‘discovered’ lands of Asia, including Sri Lanka (called ‘ Ceilao’ by the Portuguese) and the realization of this aim was accompanied by steps taken to suppress wherever possible all other religions extant principally Buddhism. The Portuguese destroyed Buddhist Temples wherever they found them and forbade the practice of Buddhism. It was the era that is more accurately referred to as the Portuguese Inquisition which took place in all Asian colonies of the Portuguese Empire. In Goa, India aghast by the local traditions followed by Hindus, the Portuguese were angered by the locals following a religion other than Christianity and ordered all temples within the colony to be shut; this marked the beginning of the bloody Goan inquisition that comprised of gross human right violations and mass executions of the local Hindu, Jew and Muslim populations. The Goa Inquisition was not an act of colonizers attempting to take control of the economic activities of Goa. It was a well-planned deliberate exercise to convert the religious beliefs of the indigenous people of Goa to Roman Catholicism of the Catholic Church in Rome. The philosopher Voltaire wrote these famous lines: “Goa is sadly famous for its inquisition, which is contrary to humanity as much as to commerce. The Portuguese monks deluded us into believing that the Indian populace was worshipping the Devil, while it is they who served him.”

Sri Lanka has been a Buddhist-majority country since the time of the Buddha. There were a couple of short periods when Buddhism was overtaken by resurgent Hindu movements. The Portuguese, the Dutch and the British proselytised only in coastal regions of the island, but the Kingdom of Kandy remained solidly Buddhist. Ironically, the last few kings of Kandy were Hindu in their private lives, but even they had to represent themselves as Buddhists in public, to their subjects.

Sri Lanka's Debt to King Anawrahta of Burma In 1069, King Vijayabahu I of Ceylon (then called Sinhale) asked King Anawrahta of Burma for aid against the Chola invaders from Tamil country. Anawrahta sent ships of supplies in aid of Buddhist Ceylon. In 1071, King Vijayabahu who had defeated the Cholas asked King Anawrahta for scriptures and monks. The Chola invasions had left the original home of Theravada Buddhism with so few monks that it was hard to convene a chapter and make valid ordinations. King Anawrahta sent the monks and scriptures, and a white elephant as a present for King Vijayabahu. The Burmese monks ordained or re-ordained the entire clergy of the island. In return, the Sinhalese King gave a replica of the Buddha Tooth of which Sri Lanka (then called Sinhale) was the proud possessor. The replica was then enshrined in the Lawkananda Pagoda in Pagan.

Some facets of Hindu philosophy is similar with Buddhism and some are different. I hope, Mother Sri lanka stays majority Buddhist and take pride in its heritage, unlike us Hindus who don't read any Hindu religious books and are busy aping colonists, I don't wish the same for Buddhism because it is inherently too secular and non-pervasive like Hinduism. Sri lanka will rise again despite the great deal it had to suffer persecution, forced conversions, destruction of heritage historically like us Hindus be it Islamic or Portuguese/ British invasions and even recently, Jaya Jagannatha and Namo Buddhey. Dharma won't die, be it Hinduism or Buddhism. Every country is ought to celebrate and remember its roots.

@@BodhisattvaTravels why don't you cover the Portuguese Inquisition in Ceylon? Read my article ' Repression of Buddhism in Sri Lanka by the Portuguese ' . It is a very comprehensive piece of work. You are doing a valuable service. Earlier we were forced fed with Western colonial propaganda on how good their belief systems were and how evil or savage the Dharmic religions were. You have now broken their insane monopoly. They are now at the receiving end of accusations, ridicule and humiliation. Tit for Tat is the only language they understand. Keep up the good work.

@@BodhisattvaTravels Portugal has a huge moral responsibility to account for the Portuguese Inquisition conducted in Goa, Ceylon, and the rest of the colonies in the Portuguese Empire in Asia. Reparations is another issue that must be dealt with. However attractive it is to forget the dark side of the crimes of the Conquistadors the victims and their descendants still carry the memories of repression, genocide and plunder in Portuguese colonies. Time for accountability and payment of compensation for the damage done during the colonial era.

The historian Paul E. Peiris observes: " They i.e. Portuguese, found in Ceylon a contented race, and a fairly prosperous country .. and it is melancholy to reflect that they succeeded in producing nothing but chaos. Out of a long list of high - born Hidalgos whom Portugal sent to Ceylon, it is difficult to point to one name as that of an enlightened statesman and high - principled administrator. No stately fabric remains as compensating for that religious fanaticism to which ample witness is borne by the devastated ruins of those lovely structures which the piety of generations had strewn broadcast over the country Their bequest to the Dutch was a colony of half -castes, a failing agriculture, a depopulated country, and a miserable and ill - conditioned people They had in Ceylon an opportunity almost unique in the experience of European nations in the East, but their moral fibre had proved unequal to the occasion.

One needs no label, Buddha emphasized what one does not label🙏🙏🙏

This is great work. Buddhists the world over are starved of Buddhism related Historical content. This area has been monopolized by the Western media and their acolytes in former European colonies. The Indians are challenging the West over the distortion of history to suit the Euro - Christian agenda. This has gone on unchallenged ever since the print media started. Not anymore. Thanks to the people behind the making of this Video clip and their like. We need more and more true history writing, not Western propaganda. European historians have lost the ability to write honestly and truthfully. They are unapologetic propagandists. They are a shameless lot.

"Sinhalese" name not come from sinhabahu. It comes from Siwhela = Siw ( four ) + hela . Siwhela become sinhala.

Again the Forces of Darkness ( against Human Evolution) were strong ..but could not win against the forces of the Light ! Around the world..millions of ex-Christians became Buddhists recognising the way of Dharma to be the true Way

Wow amazing

Your work.is excellent. 🙏🙏🙏

​@@BodhisattvaTravels ​ I will do! Thanks! Need also how Emperor Asokas missionary works did in the areas of middle-eastern countries which made Christianity come out as a separate religion. It has been proved that NT, New Testament. Gospels. The bible was a work of plagiarized from using those Buddhist missionaries to translate Buddhas teachings into old Greek and create all names and places accordingly to suit those areas. The whole scenario was researched by a danish Prof. Dr. Christian Lidtner [ The Christian Lindtner Theory (CLT) of the Buddhist Origins of the New Testament Gospels ] and is to find it online: "Jesus is Buddha". Here one cannot publish any HTTP links. Please check it online and you'll get it. Cheers and wish you all the best!

It is a well known fact that Lord Buddha visited Sri Lanka 3 times and I think it’s fair to say Sri Lanka had buddhism since that time.

Buddhism is a part Hinduism. It's not Dhamma it is Dharma. Hinduism is real Dharma. It's way of life to right path. Hindu Dharma symbols "Om" used in Buddhism. Concept like Dharma, karma, maksha (nirvana), sansar, samadhi, Yoga, dhyana, Mantra. Buddha itself hindu his knowledge base is Hinduism that's you can see repetitive in Buddhism. Buddha given new concept worshipping god based on his knowledge and experience like Adi shankaracharya, Madva charya, Ramanuja , Basaveshwar, many more..
