                 ආශිර්වාද පූජා'25

Every religion holds the truth, just as every heart holds faith

  

Leo club of University of Colombo successfully completed the First Project of Leoistic Year 2025/26. “Ashirwada Pooja ‘25”, a multi-faith blessing ceremony held on 05th and 09th July 2025 to welcome the new Leoistic Year 2025/26 with hopes for peace, unity, and prosperity. As the part of this project, we visited four religious places. On 05th of July we visited Mayurapathy Sri BathraKali Amman Kovil, Wellawatta, St. Mary’s Church, Bambalapitiya, and Jumma Mosque, Wellawatta. On 09th of July we visited the Dalada Maligawa, Kandy. By receiving blessings from each of these sacred spaces, the event beautifully reflected the message of unity in diversity, encouraging respect, understanding, and togetherness among different religious communities. 

The true success of Ashirwada Pooja'25 was made possible by the heartfelt dedication of the Leo Club members of the University of Colombo. Their hard work and genuine passion for encouraging interfaith understanding were clearly reflected throughout the event. Participants warmly embraced the customs and traditions of each faith, creating a space filled with mutual respect, unity, and friendship.

And also we extend our heartfelt gratitude to the priest at the Kovil, the father at the Church, The venerable Thero who conduct the Bodhi Pooja at the Dalada Maligawa, and the Imam at the Mosque for their blessings and kind support. We also sincerely thank everyone who contributed and supported this initiative.

This project beautifully showcased interfaith harmony by bringing together blessings from all four religions, with the hope of starting the year on a positive and meaningful note.
