Vladimir Putin congratulated Russian Buddhists on the Lunar New Year and the celebration of the White Month.
“I congratulate you on the arrival of the Lunar New Year and the White Month celebration. With the renewal of nature and our will to start from a new page, this important holiday for Buddhists symbolizes hopeful expectations, the pursuit of harmony, and the purity of intentions. During these days, it is customary to reflect on the past year, forgive grievances, and help those close to us. I am pleased to note that Russian Buddhists carefully preserve the invaluable moral and spiritual heritage of their ancestors, as well as their unique traditions and customs.
Buddhist organizations carry out significant and much-needed educational and charitable work, focus on the upbringing of the younger generations. Of course, the contribution of Russian Buddhists to maintaining peace, harmony, and mutual understanding in society, as well as fostering interfaith and interethnic dialogue, is very important. I wish Russian Buddhists success, health, and prosperity”.
