******I do not think Saivism originated in Kashmir*******

A prominent Indian scholar Professor Iruvan Mahadevan has published the ealriest images of a yogic Shiva from the Indus Valley civilisation dated to 2500BC to the current state of Haryana.

Given that the megalithic culture and iron associated with the earliest arrival of Dravidians in southern India is only 1000BC and that evidence of Tamil kingdoms is confirmd around 250BC. We also know the sage Agastya came from north and taught southern Indian people language (Tamil?) then its clear the movement of Shiva worship is from north to south.

Well...the discussion is going off topic.

What do you think of the instrument by this sorry Sinhalese lad?

Is that good or bad?

Native Sinhela dance
http://ca.youtube.com/watch...

Sinhelas have no sophisticated instruments, all are borrowed from Tamils, Malayalis and Telungu thesam.

The most hyped Sinhela drama which is called Nadagam is a Tamil srteet play.(Theru koothu).

If you see their kandyan drums, it is borrowed Malayalis drums.

When it comes to race, Sinhela retards claim they are aryan but all the
custom, culture , instruments and their food are Dravidan.

Shame on these people who wanna be brown/black aryans.

RAVANAN was Tamil SAIVA KING who was demonised by the Hindu racists to destroy SAIVAISM and promote Hinduism.
If RAMAYANA, Written by a THEIF, was a TRUE story, the Hidus and India also Sinhalese unwittingly accept that Srilankan island belong to only TAMILS.
Saivism too was the pruduct of Indian Aryans.

The sufferings and pain the Srilankan Tamils habe been exposed to from the atrocities committed by the SriLankan government will definitely boost Tamils' inner core of strength. Though inexplicably cruel in its nature, the situation the Tamil community now face there shows a remarkable nature of resilience.

Nature has a way of refitting 'tits and bits' to make amends for the disorder.

Everything the whole world now sees is only a distorted vision. It is tantamount to this comparison. The curtain still hangs in front of the audience THE WORLD. The curtain is not the show. Raise the curtain to see the REAL show.

A society long suppressed never lived as a society devoid of its fundamental rights. History is the sole evidence to the phenomenon.

Srilanka is an institution of terror, they have die hard buddhists to back up their war bussiness. I agree the immense suffering has boost up our morale, Like a phenix from the ashes we will rise with the help of God.

The Singhala leadership and their supporters are morally bankrupt. They need the war as a prop for their sorry souls.

It is said there were 11 Ravana found in Sinhalese history such as Nala Ravana, Manu ravana, Punu ravana and Dasis Ravana. The most famous Ravana is the king who fought with Indian hindu prince Rama. He is called Dasis Ravana which means the king with 10 great talents. The Dasis Ravana lived lived nearly 5000years ago in Sri Lanka. He was a descendant of Surya Wansha and Hela Raskshasa tribe.(Ancient Sinhalese tribe) He was one of the best fighters in Angampora, the traditional martial arts of ancient Sinhale.
King Dasis Ravana was a great Scholar in Ayurvedic medicine. He was the person who invented Arka Shastra. The book Arka Prakshaya reveals this truth to the present world. As his willing to research in Ayurvedic medicine he wrote several books revealing the cures for many diseases. In one book he wrote “Eating beef cause to infect ninety eight new diseases to human beings. The book “Kumara Tantraya” which reveals the treatments for infant diseases was written by him accepting the request of his pregnant queen Mandodari.
He has children and the eldest one was Indrajith also known as Meghanada who followed his father’s steps. There are some hints in Sri Lankan rock inscriptions about the daughter of king Dasis Ravana.

King Ravana’s kingdom was Lankapura. The kingdom is almost disappeared today. But If you keen on Sri Lankan folklore and ola manuscripts there you can find some remaining sites of Lankapura today known as Seegiriya and Trincomalee.

King Ravana invented the bow of Violin. He also narrated very first Ragas, the musical compositions of Eastern classical music known as Lanka Dehena and Sinhala. Siva thandawa is one of the great devotional compositions done by him, which is still being in use in India.
He was the first king flew over the world with his aero plane, known as Dandumonaraya or Vimanaya, Kashtawahana.

Some evidence of Dandumonaraya the aeroplane is found in Rock inscriptions, Jataka Stories and Ola manuscripts. The Sinhalese folk stories are enriched with Ravana Stories.
King Ravana was continuing a vegan oriented life style and was a real nature lover. According to Lankavatara sutta he was Buddhist and worshipped Kashyapa Buddha. Once he invited Kashyapa Buddha to visit Lanka and deliver his sermon to Sri Lankan citizens who practice yoga and follow Buddhism.

Today the time has changed and many of us do not know the real history of king Ravana and throw our folk tales away without considering any valuable parts of them. King Ravana was one of the best emperors found in Sri Lankan History.

There are more than 300 Sinhalese village names related to king Ravana era. In addition, there are some more places and remains in which the Rama Ravana war took place in Sri Lanka.

By the way, Mandodari is supposed to have belonged to my city, Jodhpur. The Nagvamshi kings, whose daughter Mandodari was, used to rule from an old fort, Mandor, a just 3 miles from Jodhpur.
Mandor is very near Jodhpur and there is a temple complex which I had visited. There is a tradition that Mandodari belonged to this place. However I could not locate a statue of her, is there one? There is one of Iloji Ofcourse.

There is a epigraph that is located at Yala . Which is described that Buddhist Ravana’s daughter Sohili had donated cavern to Maha sangha under the Kashyapa buddha.
Likewise there is a epigraph at Nuwara eliya which was indicated that Ravana’s chief MInister Makara had donated cavern to venerable Maha Sangga under the Kashyapa buddha.
Besides there are a lot of evidence that we can prove the Ravana is purely sinhala(Siw hela) buddhist king as well as vegetarian. Ravana had indicated one of his medical book that by eating beef , human have to sicken 98 diseases.
Great king Ravana was descendent from Raksha(demon) group who are one major group under the siwhela(Sinhalease.). Tamils are saying that Ravana is demon king. Then we can assure that Ravana is totally sinhala king.
If you would read Lankawathara Sutta , that had indicated clearly that Ravana was buddhist under Kashayapa buddha.

Lord Buddha himself was King Rama.

So the Kingdom of Ravana now worships Rama as Buddha :)

May the Lord's lotus feet always be our guide.
