ππ **Esala Full Moon Poya Day β Turning the Wheel of Dhamma ππ
Esala Poya is a deeply significant day in Buddhism. It commemorates Lord Buddhaβs first sermon, the Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta, delivered to the five ascetics at Isipatana, setting in motion the Wheel of Dhamma. πΏβ¨
This Poya also marks the start of the Vas season (annual rains retreat) for monks, a time for deeper meditation and reflection. It is also celebrated with the Kataragama Perahera, symbolizing devotion and cultural heritage in Sri Lanka. ποΈπͺ
At D and D Associates, we are inspired by this timeless teaching to guide our work with wisdom, mindfulness, and integrity β supporting businesses and individuals to prosper ethically. May this Esala Poya inspire us all to live mindfully, cultivate wisdom, and walk the noble path with compassion and peace.
May all beings be happy and free from suffering. πποΈ
