Each year, usually in the month of July, Buddhist Thais
nationwide join merit-making (การทาบญ) and other religious
ุ
ํ
activities to mark two significant days: Asalha Bucha and
Buddhist Lent Day.
Asalha Bucha Day is a special Buddhist holiday in Thailand
marking the day when the Lord Buddha delivered his first
sermon(แสดงธรรมปฐมเทศนา) at Benares in India over 2,500 years
ago. The exact date of the holiday is determined by the waxing
moon (ข้างขึน) and the lunar months.
