Hello, Fikomers! Vesak Day is a sacred moment commemorated by Buddhists around the world to honor three great events in the life of Siddhartha Gautama: his birth, enlightenment (Bodhi), and passing (Parinibbana). These events symbolize a deeply meaningful spiritual journey and inspire us to live with greater wisdom.
Vesak is not merely a religious celebration, but also a time for inner reflection for everyone. The universal values of peace, compassion, and wisdom taught by the Buddha serve as a reminder for us to do good, strengthen solidarity, and spread loving-kindness to all beings.
Let us use this Vesak Day as a moment to contemplate, improve ourselves, and radiate positive energy—within our families, on campus, and throughout society.
On this blessed day, we, the academic community of the Faculty of Communication Sciences at Gunadarma University, would like to extend our heartfelt wishes:
“Happy Vesak Day 2569 BE.”
May the light of the Buddha’s wisdom always guide our path toward a life filled with love, peace, and meaning.
