Festival Days



Copy and pasting info from Aryaloka out of laziness:

"Parinirvana commemorates the death of the Buddha Shakyamuni and provides an opportunity to consider death in our own lives, held on the full moon of February.

Buddha Day celebrates the Buddha’s Enlightenment and is held on the full moon of May/June

Dharma Day celebrates the Buddha’s teachings and is held on the full moon of July.

Padmasambhava Day celebrates the life and teaching of Padmasambhava , an Indian teacher who established Buddhism in Tibet in the 8th century CE. It is held on the full moon of September.

Sangha Day celebrates the spiritual community of Buddhist teachers, past and present, and is held on the full moon of November."

Here's my post from 2020
