Khao Phansa
Description:
For clergymen and monks, it is time to meditate - many of them will not leave the temples for three months, and for ordinary people it is a celebration of the fun Candle Festival, Khao Phansa. Laymen are made twisted and figurely, and they are given to temples and monks.
The history of this festival dates back to ancient times, when Buddhist monks did not leave temples during the rainy season, so as not to suppress insects and young shoots with their feet.
Nowadays, everyone is instructed to lead a correct lifestyle, not to drink, not to take drugs and not to do other inappropriate actions. And the young monks tell about the teachings and instruct on the true path, since, according to legend, it was at this time that the Buddha ordered his followers to gather in groups and transmit the wisdom of the teaching to everyone.
