Buddha Purnima : Buddha Jayanti , Vaishakh Purnima May 4, 2015 :
Buddha Jayanti or also known as Buddha Purnima is the most sacred festivals of Buddhist. Buddha Purnima (Buddha Birthday) is celebrated in remembrance Lord Buddha. Lord Buddha is the founder of Buddhism. This day is the birth anniversary of Lord Buddha. It falls on the full moon of the fourth lunar month (month of Vaisakh) i.e. April or May.
This day commemorates three important events of Buddha's life -
His birth in 623 BC. -
His enlightment i.e. attainment of supreme wisdom, in 588 BC. -
His attainment of Nirvana i.e. the complete extinction of his self at the age of 80.
This day is a thrice blessed day. Gautam Buddha "lived and died in about the fifth century before the Christian era". Buddha means "enlightened one" - someone who is completely free from all faults and mental obstructions.
Gautam Buddha was not a god and the philosophy of Buddhism does not entail any theistic world-view. The teachings of the Buddha are solely to liberate human beings from the misery and sufferings of life. According to the Buddhism, sorrow and desire are the main cause of all the evil and suffering of this world. Lord Buddha advocated the Eightfold Path consisting of precepts like right conduct, right motive, right speech, right effort, right resolve, right livelihood, right attention and right meditation to gain mastery over suffering. It is only after following this path one can reach the ultimate aim of Nirvana. Nirvana is the transcendental state of complete liberation.
Gautama Buddha lived and taught in northern India in the 6th Century B.C. Buddha traveled far and wide teaching hundreds of followers. Even after death his disciples continued to spread his teachings. Rich and poor alike were attracted by the simplicity of Buddha's teaching and his emphasis on complete equality of all, a notion antithetical to the existing Brahminical Vedic Varn and Caste system.
The Mauryan Emperor Ashoka espoused the Buddhist religion in the 3rd century B.C. and helped in spreading it far and wide. Sarnath and Bodhgaya are two of the most important pilgrimage centres for the Buddhists.
Though Buddhism originated in India and the religion has gained tremendous popularity throughout the Far East in Asia, there were very few practicing Buddhists in the country till Dr Ambedkar converted to Buddhism on Ashoka Vijaya Dahsmi in 1956 .
Budd
Hindus en-mass accepted Buddhist Religion during Ashokan and subsequent period . However , Videshi Brahmins also converted to it and entering it destroyed it getting first opportunity during Sankaracharya period destroying learning centres like Nalanda etc and forcefully taking possession of Bodhgaya ,
