The Festival of
Wesak celebrates not only the birth of the Buddha, but in some
countries, his death. It usually takes place in the latter weeks of
May or within the first two weeks of June beneath the full moon. To
prepare for this special day, many Buddhists adorn their statues
and may wash them with fragrant water. Many people walk to the
temple at midnight to offer sacrifices.
