Any sound reasons for the dates chosen?
Who invented these & why?
Commercially spurred or not?

Re: World Meditation Day & World Mindfulness Day ... Any reasons for the dates chosen?
I don't know who chose that date, but I like it. At least it's in May and almost always Wesak is in May.
It could be a way of "westernizing" the Wesak date, instead of using the Full Moon date.
