*According to the Sri Lankan Buddhist tradition, Wesak Day (commemorating the birth of the Buddha, his Enlightenment and his final passing into Nirvana) falls on the full moon day of May (3rd May, 2015, or the 15th Day of the Third Month of the Chinese Lunar Calendar this year). The Chinese Buddhists celebrate the birth of the Buddha on the 8th Day of the Fourth Month of the Chinese Lunar Calendar (i.e. 25th May, 2015).

Middle-Length Lam-Rim
Tsongkhapa (1357–1419) is a well-known Tibetan religious philosopher. He wrote the brilliant middle-length Lam-rim on the stages of the path to enlightenment at the age of 59, 13 years after he had written the Great Commentary of Lam-rim. This course enables us to grasp the essential points of practice.
