How Cambodia became a HINDU NATION

Описание: In this video, we'll dig into the Hindu heritage of Southeast Asia. We'll see how Southeast Asia adopted Hinduism-Buddhism Culture from India and how this adoption benefited the whole region.

The oldest Hindu civilization of South East Asia traces back to a Hindu warrior from India, Kaundinya who reached and established Funan in Cambodia. Itwas built on Vedic rituals, Sanskrit governance, Hindu temple architecture, and traditions rooted in Sanatan Dharma.

Funan was not just inspired by Indian culture — it was a living embodiment of Hinduism in Cambodia, with temples dedicated to Shiva and Vishnu, city planning based on Vastu Shastra, and rituals straight out of ancient Indian scriptures.

The spread of Hinduism in Southeast Asia can be seen across Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, and Laos, where Hindu deities, festivals, Sanskrit inscriptions, and even royal traditions survive to this day.

If you're someone fascinated by Hindu history, Sanatan Dharma's global influence, and how Indian civilization shaped the East, this story will open your eyes to a forgotten spiritual empire that still echoes through Southeast Asia.

This is the untold story of Kaundinya and Soma, a love story that became a civilizational transmission — giving rise to Hinduism in Cambodia, Hindu kingdoms in Vietnam, and a cultural legacy across the entire Southeast Asian region that mirrors the soul of Bharat.
