Happy Buddha Jayanti and International Labour Day! 🕊️
Today, we celebrate Buddha Jayanti, the most sacred day in the Buddhist calendar. It honors the birth, enlightenment, and passing of Lord Buddha. A triple celebration of the "Light of Asia" that radiates through our valley, from the spires of Swayambhunath and Boudha to the peaceful heights of Namobuddha and the caves of Pharping.
As we walk these ancient paths, we also pause to honor International Labour Day. It is the hands of the workers—the builders, the artisans, and our incredible local leaders—who keep the spirit and heritage of our city alive every single day.
Wishing you a day of rest, reflection, and deep gratitude. Happy Buddha Jayanti and Happy Labour Day from the Intrepid team! 🙏✨
P.S. While Labour Day is fixed on May 1st, Buddha Jayanti follows the lunar calendar (falling on the full moon). This year, the stars aligned to bring these two celebrations of spirit and service together on the very same day! 🌕
