CWN Editor's Note: The Dicastery for Inter-Religious Dialogue has issued an annual greeting to the world’s Buddhists, time for the Buddhist feast of Vesakh, which commemorates the birth, enlightenment, and death of Gautama Buddha.

The Buddhist quest for “the transformative power of wisdom and compassion,” the message states, “finds deep resonance in our shared pursuit of truth and fullness of life, and it aligns with the teachings of our respective traditions.”
