Boudha

I went to Boudha a few times to walk around the stupa, everything was in festive mood, because of the upcoming celebrations, I left Kathmandu just one day before Saga Dawa, the Buddha's birthday and anniversary of his passing away. Also the whole month is called Saga Dawa (the 15th, the full moon day is the birthday); most Buddhists don't eat meat during that month and avoid unwholesome actions, and do good all the time (offering alms, liberating lifes, doing religious practice), because Tibetans say, that whatever you do this month it counts 100 times.
