Monday Buddha – Phra Ham Yath Buddha
The Day of Making Peace
The city of Vesali was tormented by three evils: poverty, cholera, and devils. Devils were roaming the city feasting on dead bodies and even people. The King of Vesali was advised to seek the help of the Buddha. Accepting the invitation, the Buddha with a company, arrived at Vesali. With his transcendental powers, he caused heavy rain to pour down, so heavy that it cleaned the city of all dead bodies and uncleanliness. Later on, Ananda, his disciple went around the city, reciting portions of the Tipitaka, and sprinkling lustral water around the city. Suffering humans were healed, while all devils were frightened and fled the city. (This Image is Similar to the Image for Stopping the relatives from fighting.)
