What a beautiful afternoon in UCC. Ancient sacred Buddha relics said to have mysterious energy and healing properties were on public display in Ireland for the first time — it was an incredible experience to have been blessed by the Buddha Relics. Tom, Jamie, Alanna & I, even Belle received a healing and a blessing. The feelings of peace, serenity and compassion I felt during & after the exhibition are profound! The mysterious crystal relics of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni, who was born in Nepal 2,500 years ago and upon whose teachings Buddhism was founded, are the main feature of the exhibition. Buddhists believe the relics embody Buddha’s spiritual qualities of compassion and wisdom and that they were deliberately produced by him at his death — the relics are said to have been found amongst his cremation ashes. These relics were displayed alongside the relics of dozens of other great Buddhist masters from India, Tibet, and China... The relics tour was created in 2001 by Buddhist master Lama Zopa Rinpoche, the spiritual director of the tour. Backed by the Dalai Lama, it has so far visited 68 countries.
