佛教在线海外讯 近日,俄罗斯在印度首都新德里举办了一场反映俄罗斯佛教史的展览。
此次展览主要展出的是俄罗斯卡尔梅克共和国、图瓦、阿尔泰等所在地区佛教寺院的历史上及现在的一些图片。
俄罗斯驻印度Alexander Kadakin的大使希望此次展览能帮助印度人更多的了解俄罗斯佛教徒的生活。他表示,俄罗斯佛教有着丰富的传统,并且俄罗斯佛教徒一直以来在佛教信仰方面和印度兄弟姐妹保持着紧密联系。
1741年,俄罗斯女沙皇伊丽莎白.彼得罗芙娜发布诏书,宣布佛教为俄罗斯国家宗教,这标志着佛教的地位在俄罗斯得到官方的认可。
目前,俄罗斯有1400万佛教信众。(佛教在线编译:慧心)
n exhibition devoted to the history of Buddhism in Russia has opened in India’s capital New Delhi.
The exhibition mainly displays photos, both old and presentday, of Buddhist monasteries located in those regions of Russia which are populated mainly by Buddhists – Kalmykia, Buryaia, Tuva, Altai and others.
Russia’s ambassador to India Alexander Kadakin is hoping that the exhibition will help Indians to learn more about the life of Russian Buddhists. Buddhism in Russia is steeped in rich traditions, and Russian Buddhists have
always maintained close contacts with their Indian brothers and sisters in faith.
In 1741, a decree of Russian Empress Elizabeth II granted Buddhism the status of official recognition in Russia.
At present, there are 1,4 mln Buddhists in Russia.(来源:塔斯社)
