Comparison Day of Buddhist Calendar in 2023

The year 2023 is 2567, with a difference of 544 years.

The calculation method of the Buddhist calendar: the number of years when the Buddha was nirvana (the Buddha was nirvana in 543 BC), that is, the Buddha was born in 623 BC, minus the Buddha's life span of 80 years, that is, 25 15 years, 543 plus AD 1972.

But 1972 is the Buddha's birthday, so the Buddhist calendar after 1972 is 25 16. The calculation method of the Buddhist calendar should be increased by one year, and so on.

The Buddhist calendar is calculated from the Buddha's nirvana. Based on the year of Sakyamuni's death, the first meeting of the Buddhist calendar was held in Colombo, Ceylon (Sri Lanka). In A.D. 1950, the World Buddhist Friendship Association discussed the historical facts of the Buddha's birth, enlightenment and nirvana.
