Xizu Temple Madagascar, in collaboration with the Wule World Peace and Love Association, will host the three-day "2025 Xizu Temple Buddha's Birthday and the First World Peace and Cultural Art Festival" from May 5 to May 7, 2025.
The official poster is as follows:
On this most auspicious occasion of the Buddha's birth, when all Dharma paths converge in goodness and the lotus of the heart blossoms in full, we collectively pray for universal peace. Through the purifying Bathing the Buddha ceremony, may fragrant flowers and sacred water cleanse worldly defilements; may the resounding temple bells spread compassion and wisdom throughout the ten directions. The sacred light of the Buddha's birth, transcending 2,600 years of history, continues to sow seeds of peace in our troubled world.
Our temple cordially invites friends from around the world who cherish the Dharma and value peace to join this celebration and bask in the Buddha's radiant light. Participate in our solemn Bathing the Buddha ceremony, prayer assemblies, and cultural celebrations. Together, let us make pure offerings to the Buddha with cleansed hearts, pray for world peace with compassionate vows, forge virtuous connections, and share in the Dharma's joy!
