Subject: Request to Participate in the Scientific Testing Survey on Buddhist Sacred Relics




Venerable Sangha Members, Respected Monastic Leaders, and Devotees,


Namo Tassa Bhagavato Arahato Sammāsambuddhassa.


I humbly write to you in my role as Siridantamahāpālaka Bhikkhu Indasoma (Sao Dhammasami), the custodian of sacred Buddha relics, to respectfully seek your valuable opinions and suggestions regarding a forthcoming scientific inquiry.


As part of a transparent and inclusive approach, I am preparing to undertake DNA analysis, AMS dating, and Carbon-14 testing of several revered relics — believed to include the remains of great Arahants and possibly the sacred bodily relics of the Buddha himself.


To honor the spirit of consultation and mutual respect, I have attached a “Need Assessment Survey Form” for you and your respected institution. This survey is designed to:


Gather your thoughts on the purpose and appropriateness of such scientific testing,


Understand concerns, suggestions, and recommendations from the Buddhist community,


Ensure that all actions are in harmony with Dhamma principles, cultural values, and ethical responsibilities.


📄 Kindly review and fill the attached form.

Your participation is crucial for ensuring that this sacred task is approached with care, wisdom, and community support.


Please return the completed form to:

📧 Saodhammasami@hswagata.com


Should you wish to share additional reflections, you are most welcome to do so.


With deep respect and metta,

Bhikkhu Indasoma (Sao Dhammasami)
