Buddha Purnima 2021
Falls on 26 May 2021 in Guwahati, as computed from the real sky for that city.

Today's three riddles
Turn a card. Answer all three rightly and this portal is sealed in your sky. New riddles every morning.
The day, for Guwahati
The day is chosen by the moment the tradition reads its tithi at, and the times are that day's own, computed for this city. A festival-specific puja window is not printed: those rules differ by tradition and await a scholar's review.
What the day is
Birth, awakening and parinirvana on one full moon. The Buddha is not outside this tradition — he is its most rigorous internal critic, and the tradition kept him.
One act for the day
Eat simply, harm nothing today, and sit for as long as you honestly can.
