Holy to Hindus and Buddhists, this month usually coincides with the month of May every year. It was in Vesak that the Buddha attained enlightenment. I feel inspired when I think of the great man sitting under the Bodhi tree in Sarnath and using every ounce of mental strength to attain nirvana.
India in the days following the Buddha's attainment of Nirvana, saw its best days. I can't even imagine how simple life must have been in those days or how clean and pure the air and the great rivers of the country would have been then.
May the light of Vesak bring peace and contentment to people around the world
