Bangkok:Talented host and producer #KongPiya teamed up with his devout Buddhist friends #PunnjanParam and #ThongthongMokjok to participate in the #TakBatTevorohana merit-making ceremony at Wat Saket Ratchaworamahaviharn in Bangkok on #WanOkPhansa (End of Buddhist Lent). Their sincere faith in Buddhism led them to help preserve this ancient and beautiful tradition.

Kong Piya, Panjan Param, and Thongthong Mokjok participated in an alms-giving ceremony marking the end of Buddhist Lent.

According to Thai News Agency, His Eminence Somdej Phra Vajirasiddhacharn, a member of the Supreme Sangha Council and Chief of Region 11, presided over the event held at Wat Saket Ratchaworamahavihara. The ceremony was part of the Thevorohana festival, an opportunity for Buddhists to engage in merit-making and uphold a cherished tradition.

The Thevorohana alms-giving ceremony commemorates the Buddha's descent from the celestial realm, where he preached the Abhidhamma to his mother in the Tavatimsa heaven. This event is a chance for Buddhists to perform acts of charity and practice principles for personal and familial well-being.
