Saga Dawa [Tib.] — the fourth lunar month of the Tibetan calendar. It is considered to be the most important month of the year for practice since Buddha's birth, enlightenment and parinirvana all fall within this period (according to Tibetan tradition).

Note: Saga (Skt. Vaishakha) is one of the twenty-eight constellations, corresponding to Alpha Libroe.
