I didn't know such day existed ... the Buddhist usually celebrate "Wesak" day in my country - supposed to be the day Gautama was born.

Oh well ... maybe his enlightment will be an example to others ...

Someone somewhere is calling Wesak (with a W or V?) day with the name Bodhi day?

BTW - I thought the Wesak Day is on May/April every year.
