Big Buddha Day: May 2013

The FULL MOON DAY in the month of May is fast becoming the most important celebration in the international Buddhist year.

The date changes every year because of the lunar calendar.

But now Buddhists all around the world are beginning to choose the May Full Moon to come together in the spirit of Peace, Compassion, and Wisdom.

BIG BUDDHA DAY is pure and simple... come together on that day, somewhere nice near where YOU are, and SIT together for 1 hour...

BODY STILL... SPEECH SILENT... MIND AT REST...

Why not join in ?
Or even organise your own Big Buddha Day?

See sidebar for details of how to organise one - it is very easy...

Please join us wherever YOU are!

Don't forget to take photos to inspire and share with us!

Happy BIG BUDDHA DAY 2013 !

Today is the trifold anniversary Of Buddha Sakya Muni.
He was born, got enlightened And attained parinirvana On the full moon days of this month 26 centuries before now.
This is the time for us to remember that great apostle of peace. The teacher who taught us to train Our mind and awaken within us The great wisdom and compassion.

Big Buddha Day 2013

BIG BUDDHA DAY 2013 will be May 25.

The May Full Moon occurs from 24th to 26th [depending on which part of the world you are in].

Therefore we can choose Saturday May 25 at 3pm.

This year the suggestion is to gather with friends in ANY public place that inspires you and simply sit for 1 hour together:

BODY STILL

SPEECH SILENT

MIND AT REST
