Observation of Five Precepts for those who observe Sil, Punnyanumodana, and Conclusion by Bhante Deepankara
Duruthu Poya is extremely
remarkable for Sri Lanka as it marks Lord Buddha’s first visit to Sri Lanka in
the ninth month after attaining Enlightenment to solve a confrontation between
the Yaksha and Naga Tribes. Several significant events including handing a
handful of hair to Deva Sumana Saman who attained “Sovaan” by listening to
Dhamma preached by the Lord Buddha, happened on Duruthu poya day.
