I was asking the guy who said that Indian temples are mostly managed by Sri Lankan monks. Been to temples my entire life but I am yet to meet a Sri Lankan monk.
No problem bro!

It's common to see Buddhist monks in Hindu temples. It's just that you wont find many Buddhist monks in India.

The Mahabodhi society which manages most of the important Buddhist sites in India is a Lankan organisation run by Sri Lankan monks.. It was instrumental in reviving Buddhism in India in the late 19th century and the restoration of ancient monuments in India.. Most of these donations/Alms from Visiting Lankan pilgrims should be for those temples run by the Mahabodhi society

Maha Bodhi Society - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[10] Modi was, until recently, an office-holder in the Vishwa Hindu Parishad.
At the same meeting, the 14th Dalai Lama was given the new title of chief patron.


The Mahabodhi society at Colombo was founded in 1891 but its offices were moved to Calcutta the following year. One of its primary aims was the restoration of the Mahabodhi Temple at Bodh Gaya, the chief of the four ancient Holy sites to Buddhist control.[7][8] To accomplish this Dharmapala initiated a lawsuit against the Brahmin priests who had held control of the site for centuries.[7][8] After a protracted struggle this was successful with the partial restoration of the site to the management of the Maha Bodhi Society in 1949.[
