New Year Bhodi Pooja

January 1

“Bhodi Pooja” is a significant Buddhist ritual in Sri Lanka, often conducted to pay homage to the Bodhi tree, under which Lord Buddha attained enlightenment.

Buddhists in Sri Lanka engage in various religious activities, including Bodhi Pooja, to usher in blessings for the coming year. The ceremony involves offering prayers, lighting oil lamps, chanting, and making offerings to the Buddha.

Participating in such ceremonies is not only a religious practice but also a cultural tradition deeply rooted in Sri Lankan society. It’s a time for reflection, renewal, and seeking spiritual guidance for the year ahead. The serene ambiance of temples during these rituals creates a sense of peace and harmony, fostering a connection to one’s faith and community.
