Today is the Anniversary of the First Sermon of Lord Buddha (Drukpa Tshe Zhi), a public holiday in Bhutan.
After achieving enlightenment, Buddha gave his first sermon in the Deer Park in Isipatana, India and founded the Buddhist sangha (monkhood) about 2,500 years ago. In the sermon, which is known as ‘Setting the Wheel of Dharma in Motion’, the Buddha first spelt out the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path.

I was saddened to read this morning of the death of Tony Bennett – he was a great singer and great showman. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPAmDULCVrU
