Why do you speak in Hindi to Sri Lankans? Sri Lanka is not an India. They speak Sinhala or Tamil and you can talk to them in English. Thanks 👍🙂
I know :) my driver spoke only Hindi and sinhala. Well, as I don’t speak Sinhala, we communicated in Hindi :)
@@Jenniji ah.. Okay 😉
But nowadays Sri Lankan also try to speak Hindi
Learning any language is good. But Some Indians talk about nuking us, merging us with their country and reforming a terrorist group like they did before and divide the country. Now you want us to speak your language?
@@kasunsameera566 they are south indians , most are tamils , we sinhalese originated from north india , everything we got is from there , so understand the difference between south india and north india ,north is our true brothers ...
If you ask what is the most famous temple in Sri Lanka, 90% say it is Sri Dalada maligaya (temple of the tooth)..Buddha's teeth are treasured there. It is located in the kandy and I suggest that it is a must see temple..Thank you for coming to our country.🇱🇰🙏
Budhdhas tooth relic*
U said it right Jennie, Sri Lanka resembles Goa. I have visited this country many a times and the peaceful vibrations in Lord Buddha temple are truly felt which is an unforgettable experience of life. The people are very nice and polite. Enjoy the authentic Ceylon tea.
Your vision of Buddhism as a Non-Buddhist is remarkable. Enjoy your stay in Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka is very beautiful place to visit, thanks for sharing 💐🙏💐
If you want to get that true feeling, the best place I recommend is to visit Ruwanweli Maha Seya in Anuradhapura. It’s an ancient Stupa. The relaxing feeling it gives is amazing which cannot be described in words. Make sure you go there either early morning or in the evening to get the best experience as those stones which laid around the stupa is getting quite hot in the day time making it difficult to walk.
"definitely guys Sri Lanka is clearly clearly worth visiting" - these words have so much power.
Buddhism is the teaching of serenity and peace. You need not to become a monk to attain Nirvana. Going on 'Noble eightfold path' leads you to attain the bliss of Nirvana.
Budhisum isn't a religion. It's a philosophy. Lord Buddha has shown everyone the real way of life,and how to end this cycle of life. By attaining nirvana.
In Srilanka we drink lots of plain tea.
Mean without milk. Also we drink tea ,that mean with milk. If you really needed to taste tea always better having it plain . Indian chai you don't get the taste of tea but the taste of cardamon, clove or ginger. .
Srilanka has lot to offer .many historical sites, ancient cities, plenty of waterfalls, temples, 26 national parks with whild life. Elephants in plenty, sun sea and beautiful beaches, different climatic conditions can be expireance just a matter of few hours. Delicious cuisine, and clean cities with friendly people.
Keep enjoying and exploring this beautiful paradise.
Love from Srilanka
Jenni, temple entrance is free for locals because its their heritage .. Even though it is free for locals, they do donations (there is a donation box). Normally tourist have to pay around 400 rupees which includes both temples. These fees are going for maintenance.
Ahhh! Thank you for clarifying ☺️🙏
@@silaniscape3124 😂
It's a pleasure to see you're enjoying the visit to Sri Lanka. You're true about the feeling in the temple and Bodhgaya. It's the different kind of energy in these places make you feel in a peaceful way.
You don't have to be a monk to realize nibbana, it's totally possible as a regular lay person. You have to be honest to yourself following the path and be consistent. You'll achieve the ultimate happiness and experience nibbana.
Have a great time!
Thank you so much ☺️🙏
Some facts about Buddhism:
1. Buddhism originated in Ancient India.
2. Buddhism has 2 sects:- Theravada and Mahayana. Theravada is practiced in Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Myanmar, and Thailand. Mahayana is practiced in Japan, China, Mongolia,Korea, Vietnam, and Indonesia.
3. According to Buddhism one has to attain Buddhahood or Boddhisattva to be a Buddha. There are a total of 29 Buddhas according to Buddhism. But only 3 are Important- Dipankara(My first name has Buddhist origin), Gauthama(Siddharth Gautham),Mettheya.
4. Siddharth Gautam is the 28th Buddha and the current one. Mettheya will be the next Buddha. Dipankara is the Buddha of the past.
5. Bodhgaya holds the same significance as Mecca and Medina for Muslims. Yearly huge donations are sent from Japan, China, Korea to maintain it.
Just wanted to share some knowledge with you. I am not a Buddhist though.
Btw Great vlog and Sri Lanka is amazing!!
Thank you so much! Always glad to learn more and exchange knowledge with you guys :)
@@Jenniji in case you dont know , bodhgaya & entire buddha circuit including shravasti ,sarnath,sanchi etc are in east UP - bihar
There is a problem
Gothama Buddha lived in ancient Sri Lanka not in india.
The British Colonialists Spread Misinformation About the Buddha , a lawsuit claims.
th-cam.com/video/u5XndFnkJkk/w-d-xo.html
The Buddha lived 3900 years ago, not 2500 years ago. (English discuss : 3.00 - 45.00 min by Buddhist monk and indian professors)

@@eddiebrock9865lol lankans,what bunch of liar,both nepal & india will thrash you
with your logic king ashoka's son came from lanka to india to spread buddha's message
also a person trusting BBC for news is surely misinformed,there half baked news with full sleeves expert!!!

Welcome to Sri Lanka.. and thank you for supporting Tourism in Sri Lanka.......
Hi jennie, I'm Bharat from Hyderabad, South India had a visit to SL in March of the year ' I am very glad visiting there as it's my first visit to any international country. I had a special interest for SL and it's people so far that I can't wait to reach there. It's almost like living in South Indian
(Mixture of Kerala and Tamil Nadu) . Please go till the southern part of nation till Mirissa, Matara and hambantota. There are very calm and serene atmosphere. ,
Yes Sri Lanka is very beautiful. It was so even during Ramayan Period.
In this insightful documentary of budhism, every step you took in this amazingly soothing beautiful place felt like extremely stress-free.
Wow! This comment truly means a lot to me - thank you so much 🙏☺️
Thanks for visiting.Much love from Sri Lanka. ❤️🇱🇰
Sri Lankan here. If you are doing an extended visit, don't be afraid to go off the beaten path. There are so many things to see in this country that you will think it's not a small country at all. The political troubles are just a part of life here, but we love tourists and we especially love it when they are open to experience the country without pre-judgement.
Just a little bit of advice, though: If you are getting a guide anywhere, make sure they are certified guides. Like in any country, there are scammers around and it's not 100% safe. Having said that, most people are hospitable and will go above and beyond to help you.
Oh, One more thing if it has not been pointed out to you. Sri Lankans don't generally speak Hindi. Some of them understand it because it's a derivative of Sanskrit (much like Sinhalese, the majority language over here), and are being polite. Most people will understand English, especially in the cities, and you might be surprised that some shopkeepers in the touristy areas speak German, Russian, Italian, Swedish and other languages.
Hope you have a wonderful time here and hope you make a lot of life-long friendships.
Hey, it's so nice to see that how you explaining buddhism simply.... ♥️
welcome to our home land.. you always welcome to ask anything about sri lanka ..according to my knowledge i can give background information about most of things. its totally giving as friend and as humble citizen of my country due to supporting to promote my countries tourism within this critical situation of my motherland going through
If you come inside the country than Colombo, you will be able to get new experiences that are very different.❤ and you must take a train trip from Kandy to Ella for real beauty in sri lanka 😍😍 finally you are verry beautifully & Enjoy your trip to Sri Lanka..👍
Thanks for Visiting Sri Lanka !!!!! Wish You an Abundance of Success, Wealth, Happiness, Love , Prosperity and Good Health!!!!! You were such a good, gracious guest.
i’m so impressed how you talk hindi i watch hindhi travel videos so much very nice ... ❤ welcome always to sri lanka
Welcome to the safest country and foreigners-friendly country. Its true that most Sri Lankans dring PLAIN TEA BOPF (without milk, but added ginger and jaggery piece instead of sugar)...
Sri Lanka indeed a beautiful country. Thank you for giving a close insight Jenniji
Yes.. even we can feel that calmness and we feel the same feeling like you .. that temples are too worthy to watch..
Nice temple Jeni ji, very beautiful with the lake. Enjoy your time in Srilanka, it's a beautiful country.
Have a wonderful time.
Thank u for visiting Sri lanka. ❤️
Nirvana, the state to which all Buddhists aspire, is the cessation of desire and hence the end of suffering. Nirvana in Sanskrit means "the blowing out." It is understood as the extinguishment of the flame of personal desire, the quenching of the fire of life. Among Westerners Nirvana is often thought of as a negative state, a kind of "nothingness." But in the Buddhist scriptures it is always described in positive terms; the highest refuge, safety, emancipation, peace, and the like. Nirvana is freedom, but not freedom from circumstance; it is freedom from the bonds with which we have bound ourselves to circumstance. That man is free who is strong enough to say, "Whatever comes I accept as best."
Nirvana is the dying of the kammic force. The Buddhist ascends to Nirvana through many stages of the Middle Way, the path of wisdom, morality, and control. There is not space enough here even to mention these phases or the various aspects of the regimen recommended by the Buddha in his vast scriptures; but it may be taken for granted that the life of the conscientious Buddhist is full and rich. Through the cycle of rebirths he ascends, he perfects himself, he conquers his cravings through wisdom and love. Slowly the kammic force ebbs away, the flame dies down.
At the root of man's trouble is his primal state of ignorance. From ignorance comes desire, which sets the kammic force in motion. Hence the way to Nirvana lies through knowledge, and we come again full circle to Dhamma, the Buddha's teachings. For in Dhamma, as truth, lies release from ignorance and desire and perpetual change, and the Buddha has shown us the way to truth.
Wonderful video! Colombo is just the tip of an iceberg in one of the most beautiful island republics on the planet. This video will attract a lot of Indian tourists and we badly need them here. Hope you will stay on and explore the entire country to show its similarities and differences to our great big neighbour India from where we got Buddhism!
Beautiful Video. Thank you. Please let me correct you on one information. " Gangaramaya Temple" in Colombo is not the most important Buddhist temple in Sri Lanka. Gangaramaya is a modern temple. Temple management has managed to make it in to a "Tourist Attraction " in Colombo. I would say that the Dalanda Maligawa ( Temple of Buddha's Tooth Relic) in Kandy and The Sri Maha Bodhi ( Branch of the tree Buddha sat under when he realise the Buddha Hood in Maha Bodhi in India ) are the most important Buddhist Temples in Sri Lanka. There are so many other archaeologically important and interesting sites all around Sri Lanka, like Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa and Sigiriya, if you are interested in the long history of the Island.
You are amazing!! I have seen several of your videos now and I adore you. Your beauty only begins on the outside and hearing you speak your thoughts I know that you are also more beautiful on the inside, where it is important!! Happy Travels
Hello Jeni, It was so lovely to hear you speak in such a neutral and a melodious tone regarding Buddhism. Ture true Buddhists do not follow a God as such, but they believe in inner strength of themselves. With great sadness, many Buddhist temples have become a money making machines. When I was a child we never paid to enter a Buddhist temple. You looked so radiant and serine as you stepped between the statues... May you have a wonderful safe journey while you are in Sri Lanka(Ceylon) ☺❤🙏🌹🏵
Thanks for exploring srilanka 😍🇱🇰 Lovely video & had a great time with you. ❤️ come again Jii 💐
Thank you ☺️🙏
Wow sister🥺respect you for this video🙏🏻. Stay safe and be a happier life in our country☺️
Prettiest vlogger in the TH-cam 😍
Thank you for visiting Sri Lanka. There are so many beautiful places in here. Our ancient historical places are Anuradhapura & polonnaruwa etc..
You said its pretty hot, but windy sound was coming. I thought it is a good place to live or for just work. That golf area was crazy. 😍
Hi Brother Salil, by golf area did you mean the green area along side the beach? if so that is not a golf course....It's called Galle Face green and is used by locals to unwind specially on weekends. People play all kind of outdoor games, fly kites and there's a row of street food options. Basically it's a chill out place....come visit us some day my friend.... like Jenniji...cheers
yes ofcourse jenni
sri Lankan people drink without milk most of the time ,
it's more wealthier than with milk
we believe
and I love your vlogging skills
and being charming every circumstances
wishing you successful all the way
Hello Jenni, So happy to see you in Colombo which is Sri Lankan capital city. I hope you loved Sri Lankan foods my friend Jenni. You know a little bit of Indian language Hindi. My family was also born in India and came to Sri Lanka for business. Jenni, most Sri Lankans are Buddhists and you saw their Temples my friend. You visited the beach at Galle Face in Sri Lanka. I wish you to travel to many places in Sri Lanka Jenni
Hey dear come to gampaha there are so many ancient places you have to visit i highly recommend Maligathanna temple gampaha
for a foreigner you do have a better idea than most of us sri lankan has on buddhisum ! cheers luv ! take train trip to kandy and then to ella/badulla. most beautiful landscapes on sri lankan train ride.! and if your ever come down south bentota will teach you some sinhala too. people in sri lanka are most welcoming and im glad some one is taking up the mantel to tell sri lanka story to the world. thanks for being here buddy!
Thank you and also thank you for the suggestions! I soooo want to come back to Sri Lanka but have to leave soon :(
@@Jenniji when will you come back to India and lord bhuddha is a incarnation of lord. Vishnu of Hinduism
@@Jenniji understandable yet so sad to see you go! u just came. where ever go keep us updated ! subscribed and tunned up!
@@Jenniji Please come back to India asap and don't ever leave India ❤
@@gorkhafighter4848 Lord Buddha preach something totally different path to Hinduism . unlike other avatars y did he preach Buddhism instead of Vedas or Hinduism?.
Actually having a feeling of that kind of peacefulness meaning you have a spiritual mind set. I have that feeling when I was visiting in Ruwanweliseya and Sri Mahabodi in Anuradhapura. Anuradhapura is a must visit place to experience the peacefulness and the buddhist culture.
Buddhism is the most valuable gift we got from India❤
No , Lord Buddha was born in Sri Lanka.
But White imperialists wanted to hide it as Sinhalese people are very intelligent humans in the world.
Look how wonderful our ancient places are and most of the places are not explored yet completely.
GOODBYE

Thanks for visiting Sri Lanka. There are more places to be explored. I’m sure you will like upcountry hills too!
Amazing video... your hand is a hand of an artist. That means your first love is art. Like painting, singing, dancing etc. Usually such people are very sensitive and kind hearted. Your feet suggests you believe in equality and very careful about the steps you take. Not to hurt someone and/or get hurt.
Regarding your similarities between Buddha Gaya and the temples in Coloumbo is true and you could feel it because you are sensitive person.. STAY BLESSED..🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹🌹
What you said is correct because I am also a Buddhist monk in Sri Lanka. Buddhism is a philosophy beyond any religion. It is a practical work order.
Hi Jenni … Buddhism is not a religion. It’s a philosophy and a teaching… way of life
You are a blessed beautiful soul. Please stay longer and travel, eat more in Sri Lanka.
Welcome to srilanka 🇱🇰🇱🇰😍
Most Sri Lankans belong to Sinhalese ethnicity. The language spoken by them is called Sinhala. It's very different from Hindi. So no point trying to talk to people in Sri Lanka in Hindi
This auto wala spoke fluent Hindi :) I know that Hindi is not spoken in Sri Lanka. However, he didn’t know English so we both communicated in Hindi :)
@@Jenniji oh ok. That makes sense then.=)
Enjoy Sri Lanka
Even though Sri Lankans don’t speak fluent Hindi most of us understand Hindi here and there thanks to Bollywood
@@Jenniji its easy to understand hindi up to some extent bcz in sri lanka many of them watching hindi and tamil movies.
Although we dnt speak....we can understand Hindi...we re bombarded with Bollywood...and also same goes to Tamil...but sinhala people understand Hindi...some people..

Jenny you are naturally beautiful.....you don't need to put make up. 😊
we are the most award winning tourist country. us said we are the no 1 for tourist people. also srilanka is the most clear environment in south east asia
Also zu der Teesache: Als ich auch das erste Mal in diesem Jahr in solch einem Shop in Kandy von meinem Tuktuk Fahrer hingefahren worden bin, war es für mich wie in einem Tee Paradies. Die Qual der Wahl für Teeliebhaber.
Zu deiner Frage: Man könnte ihn zwar ohne Milch trinken, dass ist dann wie ein Espresso ohne das Wasser was man dazu bekommt. Der Schuss Milch gibt dem Ganzen das gewisse etwas. That's my tea statement ;-)
Welcome to Sri Lanka!,
Hope you are going to have informative days here,
Your are right, you feel peace and silence in all Buddhist temples everywhere it is( whether Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Srilanka and of course India)….Quite imaging you are speak Hindi Srilanka.
Its galle road face green .. schatz..' &:ps you deserve a tan .. jennie..
Also Rickshaw wallah is the indian term ..
Here in sl they say 3wheel karaya.. or tuk tuk guy man wtahever .. suits your vocabulary..
Sri lankens do have a very strong milk tea in the afternoons with a pce a
rich or love cake .. or a kawum or mung kawum .. ' omg your tea is typical indian .
Thank You Coming Sri Lanaka 🇱🇰 Love You ❤ Be safe Enjoy Travel Friend Nice Volga
