Aravind proposed the following answer:
Hi,

Sikuli script is a Jython script. You can have both Python and Java(not pure 
Java though, it's Java adapted to run on Jython environment) in your Sikuli 
script. In SikuliX 1.01, you'll have Jython doing the interpreter role (Jython 
comes bundled with Sikuli X 1.0.1)
Jython - "Java coded to adapt to Python environment, plus the normal Python 
features and functionalities". The Jython file will have a .py format, which 
means it's a Python file but supports Java as well.

To choose which language to select for coding in Sikuli:  if you are new
to both the languages, I recommend Python rather than Java because you
can avoid the overhead of converting pure Java to a Jython flavour(since
you cannot use Java syntax directly in your Sikuli script)

Moreover, don't under-estimate any of these languages comparing one
another, since you may be able to use a Java functionality which Python
fails to do or vice versa.

Hope it's clear.
