Buddhists Celebrate Magha Puja

This year, February 25th marks the full moon of the third lunar month, a day observed by Buddhists throughout the world as Magha Puja. The day celebrates a series of auspicious events in the life of the Buddha, which culminated in an important teaching that laid the foundations of Buddhism.

The observance of Magha Puja, which is a public holiday in Cambodia (មាឃបូជា), Laos (ມະຄະບູຊາ), Myanmar (တပေါင်းလပြည့်နေ့) and Thailand (มาฆบูชา), varies by location, but can include candlelight processions, pagoda festivals and meditations.
