Ritigala රිටිගල

Ritigala mountain is 2,513 feet above sea level, three miles long and lies in a north-south direction. It is the highest mountain in northern Sri Lanka and in the rainy season its summit is often shrouded in mist and cloud. The modern name Ritigala is derived from the ancient name mentioned in the Mahavamsa, Arittha Pabbata, pabbata meaning a mountain and arittha meaning dreadful, or alternatively safety. It was from here, says the great Hindu epic, that Hanuman leapt back to India to tell Rama that his kidnapped wife Sita, had been found.
These are at least 70 caves at Ritigala which were prepared for monks between the 1st century BCE and the early centuries CE. An inscription in one of these caves mentions that King Lanjatissa the brother of Duttagamini gifted it and he probably founded the first monastery at Ritigala. The Culavamsa tells us that King Sena I built a monastery here for the Pansakulika monks and provided it with numerous slaves and servants. It is the ruins of this monastery that the modern pilgrim sees today. Sometime during the 8th century a group of monks broke away from the Abhayagiri and called themselves the Pansakulikas, that is ‘The Rag-robe Warers’. Wearing robes made out of rags, usually shrouds picked up from cemeteries, is one of the thirteen ascetic practices (dhutanga) allowed by the Buddha.

This is not just a question of was Buddha born in Sri Lanka or India
That source is Mahaparinibbana Sutta. According to Mahaparinibbana Sutta just five minutes before the Parinibbana of Gautama Buddha, Ananda Thero, the great attendant of the Buddha, asked a question from the Buddha.“The Blessed One, you preached Buddha Dhamma for men and gods for a period of forty five years. They could hear you and see you. And gave the Parathogoshaka Prathyato men and gods, so then they too could join with Buddha Shakthi. Now, in the future, after your Parinibbanathey, men and gods, would not see you, hear your voice, would fail to gain the Buddha Shakthi. Wouldn’t they, the world, fail to find a way to attend at least to Sothapaththi as they fail to gain Parathogoshaka Prathya ?
නිවන් අවබෝධ කරගැනීමට උපකාර වන පැහැදිලි මග විවෘත කර දෙමින් පුරා වසර දොළහක පමණ කාලයක් තිස්සේ අප සැමට ධර්ම මාර්ගය කියා දෙන මහා ප්‍රාඥ අති පූජනීය මීවනපලානේ සිරි ධම්මාලංකාර මහ තෙරුණ් වහන්සේට අපගේ ගෞරවණීය නමස්කාරය වේවා !!! සාදු ! සාදු ! සාදු !.

its ok to do a documentary on our historical architecture, but don't try to destroy it with some Ravana Mythology ... don't destroy pristine Buddhist history..its a massive bad karma if you do that.
