Buddhist Lent

For this long weekend, Many people take this chance to make merits with family such as offering foods to monks, keeping precepts, setting birds or fishes free and donating clothes or money etc. Usually, the monk won't go anywhere in this period because people told the buddha that their plants were harmful with the action of monks, so buddhism always offers candles to the monk for reading books but today the candle isn't necessary because we use electric bulb nowadays.
