MY DEAR DHARMA FRIENDS, 15TH OF FOURTH BHUTANESE LUNAR CALENDER - 19th MAY 2008 IS HOLIEST AND AUSPICIOUS DAY FOR ENTIRE BUDDHIST COMMUNITY.

BUDDHA PERFORMED THREE SIGNIFICANT DEEDS ON THIS DAY : HIS BIRTH, ENLIGHTENMENT, ENTERING INTO PARINIRVANA(DIE)

1. HE WAS CONCIEVED INTO THE WOMB OF QUEEN MAHAMAYA, SAKYA ROYAL FAMILY AND WAS BORN AT LUBINI GARDEN, NEPAL

2. AT 35, HE ATTAINED THE ENLIGHTMENT UNDER THE BODHI TREE AT BODHGAYA, INDIA.

3. AT THE AGE OF 80 HE ENTERED INTO THE PARINIRVANA (DIE) STATE AT KUSHALNAGAR, INDIA.

IF ONE PERFORMED VIRTUE DEEDS ON THIS DAY WILL HAVE 100,000 TIMES STRONGER EFFECT THAN THE ANOTHER DAY.
