The exposition of the sacred Devnimori relics of Lord Buddha is scheduled to begin at the Gangaramaya Temple today.
The exposition of the sacred Devnimori relics for the general public will be held at the Gangaramaya Temple in Hunupitiya, Colombo, for seven days, starting from today to February 11.
The Sacred Devnimori relics of Lord Buddha, discovered during excavations in the 1960s at the historic Devnimori site in Gujarat, have never previously been taken outside India.
The President’s Media Division stated that following discussions held between President Anura Kumara Dissanayake and Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the latter’s recent visit to Sri Lanka, a rare opportunity has now been provided for the people of Sri Lanka to venerate these sacred relics.
