Makabucha Day
Makabucha Day (วันมาฆบูชา) is a Buddhist holiday, which takes place annually on the night of the full moon during the third lunar month of the year. This year which is the year of the rabbit is on February 18, 2011.
Makabucha is the day to remind all the Buddhist of the event when 1250 monks, all of which were ordained by Lord Buddha himself, decided to come back to see Lord Buddha at Weluwan Wannaram without prior appointment after traveling around and teaching Buddhism. This significant event took place on the night of the full moon of the third lunar month over 2500 years ago.
Because it was the first assembly of the large group of the Buddhist monk gathering therefore Lord Buddha gave them Owata Patimok which is considered the first constitution for all the laws of Buddhist monks from then until now.
