In 1885, the Buddhist Flag was first hoisted in Sri Lanka on Wesak Day, when the country was still under colonial rule. The majority Sinhalese Buddhist population then felt discriminated against by the colonial authorities when carrying out their religious activities, as well as pressurised by relentless evangelism. The Buddhists needed an icon to peacefully rally around, and hence, the Buddhist Flag was initiated.

At the World Fellowship of Buddhists Conference in 1952, the flag was unanimously adopted by the international delegates as the universal symbol of Buddhist faith. Since then, this flag is flown at important Buddhist events, especially on Wesak Day.

When devotees gaze at the Buddhist Flag, we see a potent symbol of faith, global unity and world peace. The colours on the flag exemplify the Buddhist ideal of harmony between all nationalities and beliefs, and the universally-accepted, all-encompassing truth of Dhamma.

This body is not me. I am not limited by this body. I am life without boundaries. I have never been born, and I have never died. Look at the ocean and the sky filled with stars, manifestations from my wondrous true mind. Since before time, I have been free. Birth and death are only doors through which we pass, sacred thresholds on our journey. Birth and death are a game of hide-and-seek. So laugh with me, hold my hand, let us say good-bye, say good-bye, to meet again soon. We meet today. We will meet again tomorrow. We will meet at the source every moment. We meet each other in all forms of life.

Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing. We think that the point is to pass the test or to overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don’t really get solved. They come together and fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again. It’s just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy.
