Introduction :
Every year we celebrate Vesak Day on 2nd
June, it's a highly important occasion in the Buddhist calendar, Vesak
Day in Singapore commemorates Lord Buddha's entry into Nirvana after
attaining spiritual enlightenment. The Vesak holiday is celebrated in
different ways around the world. In Singapore the day usually starts
with monks chanting Sutras. This is followed by the ceremonial release
of small animals or caged birds. This is considered an act of
generosity, symbolic of generating good karma. The act also symbolises
the Buddha's compassion for all things. The celebration concludes with a
candlelit procession through the streets. However rise to the occasion
and reach out to all you know with inspirational messages and make this
day more memorable.
