For adherents of Buddhism, this exhibit is a chance to renew their spiritual commitment, and for non-Buddhists it is a rare opportunity to enjoy the beauty of Buddhist art and retrace the history of Buddhism as it migrated from India and gradually established itself as a Chinese religion.
對佛教徒而言，這場「千古佛光」特展彷彿是一場淨心禮佛大典；對一般人來說，這也是難得的機會，可以欣賞佛教藝術之美，並可藉此追溯印度佛教逐漸「內化」為中國佛教的脈絡。
