The festival of Buddha Purnima is traditionally celebrated to commemorate the birth of Siddhartha Gautama, who later became Gautama Buddha and went on to become the founder of Buddhism. This year, the festival of Buddha Purnima is being celebrated today, i.e. May 26, 2021. This auspicious occasion falls on Purnima or a full moon day. Buddha Purnima is also known as Buddha Jayanti, Vesak Day and Vaishaka.
On this day, people celebrate Siddhartha s choice to embrace a spiritual quest wherein he renounced all worldly pleasures to become a holy man. He chose this life when he witnessed the suffering of common people. He was hence inspired to let go of his royal life.
