深圳佛教新闻网讯:据斯里兰卡《每日新闻》报道,斯里兰卡阿努拉德普勒圣城八大历史朝拜场所之一的Abayagiri佛塔修复工作将加紧进行,预计在2010年完工。
2009年6月18日,斯里兰卡总统拉贾帕克萨将Jetawana 佛塔交给佛教社区用作宗教活动。他在对Jetawana 塔修复工作耗时28年才完成表示了关注后,指示文化部长和中央文化基金官员要采取措施,尽量在2010年完成对Abayagiri佛塔的修复工作。
Abayagiri佛塔保护工作于1983年开始,但中途停止了一小段时间,而目前正在进行的保护项目开始于1997年。(编译:子规)
The conservation work on the Abayagiri Stupa one of the historic eight places of worship (Atamasthana) in the Anuradhapura sacred city will be accelerated.
The conserved Jetawana Stupa was offered to the Buddhist Community for religious performances by President Mahinda Rajapaksa on June 18.
The President after focussing his attention and concern over the fact that the Jetavana Conservation Project has taken 28 years for completion, instructed the Cultural Minister and Cental Cultural Fund officials to take steps to finish the Abayagiri Stupa restoration work in 2010.
Conservation work of the Stupa started in 1983 and stopped within a short period. The present ongoing conservation project was initiated in 1997.
