What's the meaning of SRI LANKA? Just to know.

In Sanskrit, the word Lanka means "resplendent island". It is also used to refer to any island, including Sri Lanka, the island south of India in the Indian Ocean. In Hinduism, Laṅkā (लंका) is also defined as an island city, usually associated with Ceylon, the home of Ravana.
