PRESS STATEMENT
THE MALAYSIAN BUDDHIST CONSULTATIVE COUNCIL
DO NOT SUPPORT “THE BUDDHA RELICS & TIBETAN ANTIQUES”
BY KADHAMPA ORGANISATION
The Malaysian Buddhist Consultative Council (MBCC) do not support “The Buddha Relics & Tibetan Antiques” event held at Stadium Putra, Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur from 23/12/10 to 1/1/11 organised by the “Malaysia Kadhampa Buddhist Association”.
The Buddha relics are the remains of the Buddha and they are highly respected among all Buddhists worldwide. As the Buddha relics are very rare and precious, the discovery of any Buddha relics would receive world attention. In addition, any claim of discovery of Buddha relics must be verified by recognised Buddhist masters and even scientifically by archaeologists and scientists.
Thus, the Malaysian Buddhist Consultative Council would like to inform the Buddhist disciples and the public not to support such event nor to attend the relics expo. The MBCC is unable to verify the authenticity of its Buddhist lineage.
In addition, the MBCC do not agree with the practice of any party who circulate the proclaimed “Buddha relics” commercially either through sales or donation.
The Malaysian Buddhist Consultative Council is consisted of Young Buddhist Association of Malaysia (YBAM), Buddhist Missionary Society Malaysia, Sasana Abhiwurdhi Wardhana Society (Sasana), Malaysian Fo Guang Buddhist Association and Vajrayana Buddhist Council Malaysia (VBCM).
Best regards,
Sek Chin Yong
Secretary

文告
马来西亚佛教咨询理事会不认同 嘎档巴总会
所主办的“佛陀舍利及古物展”
马来西亚佛教咨询理事会不认同，由马来西亚嘎档巴总会于2012年12月23日至2011年1月1日，假吉隆坡武吉加里尔体育馆所举办的“佛陀舍利及古物展”。
佛舍利是佛陀的遗骨，极受佛教徒的重视和尊崇。由于佛舍利的无比珍贵和重要，任何佛舍利的发现都必然引起世人的注意。任何佛骨舍利的发现，必须经过佛教高僧大德的核证，并获得考古学家及科学家以科学方式鉴证。如此庞大数量的佛舍利的突然出现，让我们对有关展出的舍利之真实极为保留。
因此，马来西亚佛教咨询理事会希望佛教徒及公众人士，不要支持有关活动，也吁请大家不要出席有关舍利展。佛教咨询理事会也不承认其正信佛教的地位。
除此，佛教咨询理事会也无法苟同任何团体，以任何商业兜售或捐款方式，来流通佛骨舍利。
马来西亚佛教咨询理事会成员包括马来西亚佛教青年总会（马佛青）、马来西亚佛教弘法会（BMSM）、锡兰佛教精进会（Sasana）、马来西亚佛光协会以及马来西亚佛教金刚乘总会。
