SUMMARY:ຕັກບາດ ບຸນຫໍ່ເຂົ້າສະລາກ - Boun Kaosalak
DESCRIPTION:Boun Khao Salak\, 15 days after Boun Khao Padap Din\, ritual ceremonies happen in the same way\, except for one thing. This time people number the offerings; they will draw them.  Each monk receives also in this manner a list of people to pray for (listing the names of the dead persons the family wishes to honor). \nNecessities such as soap\, toothpaste\, and toothbrushes compose the offering this time. Boun Khao Salak helps people to go through this time of penance. It also marks the entrance in the second half of the Buddhist Lent.  This simplicity in life will end with the festival of Boun Ok Phansa. \nRead more…

SUMMARY:ຕັກບາດ ບຸນອອກພັນສາ - Boun Okphansa
DESCRIPTION:Boun Ok Phansa – also Ork Phansa\, marks Buddha’s return to earth and signifies the end of Buddhist Lent when after three months of retreat\, the monks return to their daily social activities. At dawn of Boun Ok Phansa\, followers gather at temples across Lao to give donations and offerings. In the evening\, beautiful candlelit processions are held at the temples and hundreds of colorful floats of flowers\, incense\, and candles float down the Mekong River. To prepare for the celebration\, families make a small round container to put candles\, flowers\, incense or food and money. \nAt the bank of the Mekong\, they then light the candles\, say prayers and send the boat of light floating away down the river. This tradition is observed to pay respect to the river spirits\, especially the Mekong River\, which means Mother of All Things. People also believe that this is a way to send away all negativity such as sickness\, bad luck\, shortcoming\, and failure. \nThe end of Buddhist Lent is also celebrated with fabulous boat races along the Mekong River in Vientiane. \nRead more…
