Magha Puja Day (Fourfold Assembly or "Sangha Day")

Magha Puja Day takes places on the full moon day of the third lunar month (March). This holy day is observed to commemorate an important event in the life of the Buddha. This event occurred early in the Buddha's teaching life.

After the first Rains Retreat (Vassa) at the Deer Park at Sarnath, the Buddha went to Rajagaha city where 1250 Arahats,(Enlightened saints) who were the Buddha's disciples, without prior appointment, returned from their wanderings to pay respect to the Buddha. They assembled in the Veruvana Monastery with the two chief disciples of the Buddha, Ven. Sariputta and Ven. Moggalana.

The assembly is called the Fourfold Assembly because it consisted of four factors: (1) All 1250 were Arahats; (2) All of them were ordained by the Buddha himself; (3) They assembled by themselves without any prior call; (4) It was the full moon day of Magha month (March).

This video is a dedication to the Lord Sakyamuni Buddha. I made this special segment for the Magha Puja Day, a very important ceremony for all Buddhists around the world.

  • Until one learns to exist with only the means and without desires, one will always suffer.

  • "The whole purpose of religion is to facilitate love and compassion, patience, tolerance, humanity, forgiveness." This is very true in the truth. I feel sorry to see some religions try to attack to others but I am proud of Buddhism that never attack any others even It have been attacked from other religions!
