Religious Beliefs: The major religion in Sri Lanka, Buddhism, is practiced way back in the 3rd century B.C. during the reign of Ashoka. This Indian-transfer of religion made a significant role in establishing the Sinhalese kingdoms which taught Buddhism as the highest ethical and philosophical ways and means of then reigning Sinhalese culture and civilization in the land. Around 6th and 4th centuries, South Indians also brought Hinduism in the land. Chola seized the reigning kingdoms and constructed major Hindu Gods like Vishnu, Shiva, Kali, Ganesha and Skanda in the land.

About 7% of the total population in Sri Lanka practices Muslim cultures as brought about the Arab traders in the Middle East of the country. This

started in 10th century AD. In the 16th century AD, Portuguese also brought Christianity. When Dutch ruled, Protestantism was also introduced.
