DESCRIPTION:

Buddhist Lent marks the start of the Wan Khao Phansa, a period of three lunar months during which Buddhist monks return to their temples and sequester.

It is a reenactment of the habits of The Buddha. He chose to stay closed in a temple during rainy seasons to preserve life by avoiding killing by stepping on an insect or a plant.

Monks today spend this period studying, meditating, and teaching. They are allowed to briefly go outside the temple during the day and sleep in the same temple nightly. Banks close on the first day of Wan Khao Phansa in Buddhist countries, and alcohol is avoided.
