 Priests according to their astrological calendars\, so VERY difficult to 
 nail down far in advance.\n\nThis is an ancient Brahman ceremony which 
 celebrates the beginning of the rice planting season\, and thus is 
 important for the many rice farmers of Thailand.  HM King Bhumibol 
 presides over ceremonies held in front of Wat Phrakaew at Sanam Luang\, 
 in which Brahmin priests bless seeds and make symbolic furrows using a 
 plough pulled by buffalos. Once the ceremony is over\, the audience runs 
 to the furrows to get the blessed seeds\, which are supposed to bring 
 good harvests.\n

 float small banana-wood or styrofoam \"kratongs\" on the water with a 
 candle\, joss sticks and a coin to thank the river goddess and wash away 
 their sins of the past year. Apparently started in the 13th century in 
 Sukhothai\; Nang Nopamas\, a royal consort of King Ramkhamhaeng (the 
 founder of Sukhothai)\, made the first kratong as an offering to Mae Nam. 
 She then set it afloat on one of the canals of the palace so that it 
 would drift past her lover the king. The king was delighted with the 
 creation\, and thus was the origins of the saying that if two lovers set 
 a kratong adrift and it stays afloat until out of sight\, their love will 
 last forever.

 วันเข้าพรรษา\n\nThe beginning of the Buddhist 
 Lent\, or \"Khao Phansa\". Buddhist monks remain within the temple 
 grounds and do not venture out for a period of three months starting from 
 the first day of the waning moon of the eighth lunar month (in July) to 
 the fifteenth day of the waxing moon of the eleventh lunar month (in 
 October). In former times\, this is done to prevent monks from trampling 
 upon rice paddies when they venture out to receive offerings from the 
 villagers. This period is translated as \"Lent\" because many lay people 
 choose to be strict about keeping the precepts and even refrain from 
 eating meat.
