This dream feels profound and I’d like some help interpreting

I had a dream last night that was two parts but within the same dream. The first part I was white water rafting. I was competing against 2 others and I tipped over in my kayak almost immediately upon starting and was far behind. But, over the course of the race I came back and won the race.

At the bottom there were reporters and one of them asking me how long I’ve been white water rafting and I said back “this is my first time!”

From there, we then entered into what was the feeling of a Buddhist ceremony with temples and monks dressed in traditional orange garments. We were looking over mountains (feeling of Tibet) and there was a procession of sorts.

I quickly went and kneeled next to the other monks, despite the other rafting racers telling me I shouldn’t. My hands were rearranged by a monk in the form of the proper mudra, index fingers curled inward so the backs of my fingertips were touching, the rest touching extended at fingertips, and my thumbs doing the same. I then had oil poured over my hands and head out of a special bowl.

A short while after, the ceremony ended and I got up with a feeling that I can’t find the words for now. And that’s the end.

Thank you in advance to anyone who takes the time to offer any insights!
