Hi Clarence,
 >DM> Dec.  8 [BUDDGISM] Bodhi Day - celebrated by many Buddhists as
 >DM> anniversary of the enlightenment.
The original schools of Buddhism do not celebrate Buddha's enlightenment on 
Dec 8th. I know this Dec 8th is a date associated with the Japanese Zen 
schools but I don't know if it has a wider application to rest of the 
Mahayana schools.
