2) “The Prospects for the Growth of Buddhism in Germany and other Western Countries”, by Agganyani (Christa Bentenrieder)

The Keynote address was delivered by Agganyani, Secretary General, Deutsche Buddhistische Union at the public meeting held on September 21, 2002 at Savsiripaye, Colombo to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the founding of the German Dharmaduta Society (1952 -2002).

” We German Buddhists will never forget what you have done for us. We all appreciate your contribution to the spread of Buddhism in Germany, and to the Berlin Buddhist Vihara, and we thank you out of the deepest gratitude of our hearts.

May all of you attain Nibbana soon as a reward for your generosity and promotion of Theravada Buddhism in Germany.

Let Sri Lankans and Germans follow the path of the Buddha together, hand-in-hand.

May we attain Nibbana together and soon!”

  Agganyani
