The day to do something extraordinary...

Tomorrow is Wesak day or Vesakha day. The day where Buddhist (Theravada & Mahayana) celebrate the birthday, leaving of secular life, enlightenment and parinirvana of our Noble teacher, Shakyamuni or Siddharta Gautama Buddha. It is a day to do something out of this world...

And what is it you might ask? It is the day for you to stop what you're doing and reflect, sit down, free yourself and focus your mind into your own being. That's why it is an extraordinary day. In Malaysia, the Wesak is a public holiday, this is done, so all Buddhist can go and perform their prayer and listen to the Dharma. Buddhist way places in Malaysia will be a busy place with devotees and disciples coming to renew their vows, their precepts, to refrain from wrong action, wrong speech, wrong awareness and change your bad habits.

I am taking this opportunity to wish all disciples of the Buddha, a happy Vesakha,

Om ah hum....

Tadyatha Om Muni Muni Maha Muniye Svaha!

Namo Tassa Bhagavato Arahato Samma Sambuddhasa.
