Several
hundred Buddhist devotees of Wellington New Zealand took part in an epic event
on 20th of November , the inauguration of the Bo Maluwa in the
premises of the DGMC at Wainuomata, a suburb of Lower Hutt about twenty
kilometres north of Wellington.
This was a structure built to protect DGMC’s fledgling Bo Sapling ,from the cold and wind of Wellington. The four sides of this Maluwa had the seven Buddha statues each ,representing the twenty eight Buddha’s of this kalpa. These statues were placed in purpose built sheltered compartments, as the four side of the Maluwa.
