Wesak is a word found in Bahasa Malaysia or Bahasa Indonesia. Wesak is originally pronounced as "Vaishaak" in Sanskrit and is a name of summer month when the crop is fully ripe/dried and is ready for harvesting. It is in this month Crops are harvested and hence the festival of harvest in India, Malaysia and Indonesia. So we can say that "Wesak" or "Vaishaak" belongs to whichever religion the Greater India was following for more than 10,000 years.
