Vesak was here again in the month of May. The Vesak month is a prosperous and rainy month. We celebrate the Buddha’s birth, enlightenment, and passing away on Vesak day. We give alms, dansals and help poor people and offer food parcels to devotees. We observe Sil at temples and go on pilgrimages to sacred places. We develop good habits to be good people and also protect our environment. Hence I like Vesak.
