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.
How to keep Buddha Purnima
One act for the day
Eat simply, harm nothing today, and sit for as long as you honestly can.
The day, for Delhi
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.
