One day I was going to a temple. On the path I met an old person who was giving cards to everyone. On card there is a strange message written.
Will you help me to read the message?

It reminds me of this puzzle as a created one (so props for it), based on the information in ciphers (for beginners as well as for advanced puzzlers) of the PSE site (pigpen cipher)! – Mea Culpa Nay Nov 28 '17 at 08:08

This is a very partial answer. I used brute force to get this. Just hope it’s correct.
I think the answer is
Nice to meet you
When you decipher the pigpen, you get
RMGIUQQIIXULR
Then you do rot-22 (equivalent to taking each letter four letters back) and get
NICEQMMEETQHN
I used rot-3 on QM (basically taking each letter in UQ one letter back) to get
TP
And rot-7 on QHN (that’s the same as taking each letter in ULR three letters ahead) to get
XOU
Did a little change (P to O & X to Y) to give me
Nice to meet you

First answer here (partial answer), feel free to edit.
Using Pigepen cipher we can find :
RMGIVQQIIXVLR then using the ^ at delimeter taking RMGI, and using caesar code with key = 4 (because there is 4 letter in the word, we find NICE but the rest of the text don't match)
1
What i did to create this question is I shifted the letters according to length of the word.
NICE + 4 letter shift gave me RMGI.
TO +2 letter shift gave me UQ.
MEET +4 letter shift gave me QIIX.
YOU -3 letter shift gave me ULR.
Finally i got RMGIUQQIIXULR
