Vesak, also known as Buddha's Birthday, is a sacred and important event celebrated annually by monks, nuns, and Buddhists around the world . Vesak commemorates three important events in the life of Buddha Shakyamuni: Buddha's birth, enlightenment, and nirvana. Vesak has been recognized by the United Nations as a world cultural and religious festival for peace since 1999.
The Buddha's Birthday is not only an occasion for monks, nuns and Buddhists to show gratitude and turn to their Master, but also an occasion for society to honor the good moral and cultural values of Buddhism for social life.
