Happy vesak to you too
Vesak in a Buddhist tradition is the celebration of Buddhas Birth, Enlightenment and Death that did happen on the same day (date) But today i think it is more as a tradition then knowing exactly what day in the year it happen. Personally did not take part in a physical celebration but use this day as reflextion and a day from even deeper meditation* Important (@crossfire , @Amanaki)
Allah knows when the month was named as Vaisakha. If something like 2-4,000 years ago, then because of the precession of equinox it may have moved away from that position. However, the name of the month continues.

I do go to the monestary to speak with monks (if they wish to speak to me) But i dont take part in rituals or celebrations, But being mindfull and dhamma study is good in the monestaryJoin the Buddhists whenever the chance arises. Religious days are for fun, happiness and reflection on life.
