      I was driving my Mercedes benz Vito with my disabled daughter in county Wicklow as my wife is from Ireland. I saw a sign "free range eggs for sale". Was walking to the place when the people in the path chased me ;caught up with me. They started asking me questions and accused me of being a burglar. @@bwkcbandara9122

    So the threads actually a good luck and protection charm thing.
    The chantings he whispers is about protection and luck, and its in 'Pali", one of ancient language from India and core language used in Buddhist text.
    Sinhala language is form by merging Sanskrit with writing Patten of Pali.
    This is why Sinhala speakers can naturally understand Sanskrit words but cannot read or write them.

    Dear dharma friends, I see that you are questioning the purpose of the gifted thread. This special little gift of thread is a blessing. A blessing that absobed good vibrations of daily chanting and recitings, of the disclosures of supreme Buddha. The disclosures of truths. And these strings hold the power of these absolute truths. And when you receive this gift, the monk also chants a beautiful blessings, which means may you be free of struggles, may you be free of illnesses, with all this blessings may you live a happy and long life he says in Pali language 🙏🏽
    Also just letting you know that after a day or two or just whenever this white thread gets dirty just feel free to remove it. You dont need to hold on to the thread to hold on to the blessings.
    I wish you all the best!☺️🙏🏽

    love the video and glad you guys are enjoying the stay, quick side note about Sri Lankan Buddhist temples : We don’t refer to monks as “my friend” but I’m sure you meant that in a good way. Also temple is a place of silence, peace and respect, we usually wear only white clothes all covered, no shorts or revealing outfits. I just wanted to give some input so you guys know some of the important rules for future reference. I hope you both visit Sri Lanka many more times, thank you so much for this lovely video, lods of love from New York

So that the priests give it as a blessing to people who comes to the temple.hope you understood what is it.😊👍 (My English might be grammatically wrong I’m not sure, for that my apologies because I’m still learning.)and enjoy your Sri Lanka tour
