I thank the organisers for having invited me to the Opening Ceremony of the Africa Tour of Maitreya Relic Tour. This tour provides a very rare and unique opportunity to view the sacred relics of the Buddha and many Buddhist masters.  It is with these feelings and with profound humility that I invite you all to discover a very rich religious tradition with all the respect and with a positive mind.
