DhammaVijaya to Dhamma Century

BodhigayaVijjalaya 980 Institute The main mission is to operate various project activities to drive the propagation of Buddhism both nationally and internationally, to create cooperation and exchange of knowledge, to create a good understanding for living together in harmony with peace among Buddhist countries in Asia, using the principles of Buddhism and the principles of various religions as the core for developing sustainable and stable prosperity on the path of peace for all humanity.

The Bodhigaya Institute has been operating in accordance with this mission for 17 years and has an outstanding and well-known achievement, which is the 5-Country Dhammayatra in the Mekong Basin (Thailand-Myanmar-Vietnam-Laos-Cambodia), which has been organized twice: the first time, the 5-Country Dhammayatra in the Footsteps of the Noble Monks of the Mekong Basin, was held in 2017; the second time, the 5-Country Dhammayatra in the Mekong Basin, Buddhist Diplomacy for World Peace, was held in 2019. This led to the 3rd Dhammayatra project named the Ganga-Mekong Holy Buddha Relics Dhammayatra, which is the greatest project that no one has ever completed before because it is a Dhammayatra connecting the lands of the Lord Buddha from the Ganga River in India. To the land of Buddhism in the Mekong River Basin of Thailand, led by the relics of the Lord Buddha from the National Museum of India, followed by the relics of the left and right chief disciples, Sariputta and Maha Moggallana, from the Great Stupa of Sanchi, India, between 22 February and 19 March 2024, and there were 4,127,590 devout Buddhists joining in paying homage throughout the country.

With the firm determination of the institute, it is the origin of the project DHAMMAVIJAYA TO DHAMMA CENTURY: Buddhist Alliance for Dhamma Century, Dhamma Principles of All Religions. This project is the great dream of the institute that aims to promote the study and practice of Buddhism including the principles of various religions for all mankind. The goal is to create a deep understanding until they can see the value and benefits of the teachings of the Buddha and the principles of various religions in order to apply the teachings in daily life for self-development and to expand the creation of peace through Dhamma to occur in families, societies, at the Asian level and at the world level.
