1885 年,由 Ven. Hikkaduwe Sri Sumangala
Thera 带领的 Colombo Committee 在筹备卫塞
庆典过程中,就萌起设计佛旗的念头。委员会
希望佛旗能成为全球佛教的象征。
(根据 1980 年,Buddhist Theosophical
Society 百年纪念册的记载, Gunawardena 就
是佛旗的设计师。)
“The Buddhist Theosophical Society in
its Centenary Volume in 1980 paid a
tribute to Carolis Pujitha Gunawardena
who was the Secretary of the Colombo
Committee as the designer of the Buddhist
Flag.”
—— K. D. G. Wimalaratne, “Flag, The
Buddhist”
