Dear Friends, On Behalf of Aayush Ki Pathshala I wish you a happy Buddha Purnima to all lovely viewer.
Buddha’s Birthday is a Buddhist festival that is celebrated in most of East Asia commemorating the birth of the Prince Siddhartha Gautama, later the Gautama Buddha, who was the founder of Buddhism.
Buddha Purnima is one of the major religious festival of Buddhism.
Gautama Buddha was born in Lumbini, which is now Nepal. Buddha Purnima or Buddha Jayanti, also known as Vesak, celebrates the birth of Prince Siddhartha Gautam, who later became Gautam Buddha, the founder of Buddhism.
Buddha Purnima is a public holiday in India and various countries. The Vesak full moon day is the most important day in the Buddhist calendar. Several Buddhists go to the temple and do prayers.
In South and Southeast Asia, the Buddha’s birth is celebrated as part of Vesak, a festival that also celebrates the Buddha’s enlightenment and death. In East Asia, the awakening and death of the Buddha are observed as separate holidays.
