New Delhi, 17th Oct. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to participate in the celebration of International Abhidhamma Divas and the recognition of Pali as a classical language on October 17 at Vigyan Bhavan, New Delhi. The event will commence at 10 AM, where the Prime Minister will address the gathering.
International Abhidhamma Divas commemorates the descent of Lord Buddha from the celestial realm after teaching the Abhidhamma, a significant aspect of Buddhist philosophy. This year’s celebrations are particularly notable, as the recognition of Pali as a classical language, alongside four other languages, adds depth to the observance. Lord Buddha’s teachings on Abhidhamma are originally preserved in the Pali language.
The event, organized by the Government of India in collaboration with the International Buddhist Confederation, is expected to attract academicians and monks from 14 countries, along with a considerable number of young experts on Buddha Dhamma from various universities across India.
