Sarnath in Uttar Pradesh and Bodh Gaya in Bihar become the centre of attention during this time as pilgrims from all over the world come here to attend the Buddha Purnima celebrations. The day is marked with prayer meets, sermons, meditation and processions.
Devotees offer incense and fruits to the statue of Buddha. They also sprinkle milk and scented water on its roots and light rows of lamps around it.
May you find your special one with Lord Buddha's blessings.
In the year 2011, Buddha Purnima falls on May 17th, in 2012 it is on May 6th and in 2013 the festival is on May 25th.
