Buddha Purnima – The Message of Buddha’s Journey to Enlightenment

“Appa Deepo Bhava” – Recognize the divine light within yourself; that is the awakening of Buddhahood. When the inner lamp is lit, the darkness of ignorance naturally dissolves. On the sacred occasion of Buddha Purnima, from Parmarth Niketan, HH Pujya Swamiji shares a divine message: walk the path of compassion, equanimity, and awareness, and become a light unto yourself. This is life’s highest celebration, the pinnacle of self-realization, and the radiant illumination of consciousness. Once you have recognized that inner light, share that light with the world.
