CHOTRUL DUCHEN - DAY OF MIRACLES

For fifteen days after the new moon (Losar), Buddha performed multiple miracles and gave teachings each day. The first fifteen days of the new year are holy days and all positive and negative merit increases. Be mindful of your thoughts and actions during this time.

The fifteenth day is known as Chotrul Duchen or the Day of Miracles. This year is falls of February 19, 2019. 

The  leaders of the six main philosophical schools had continuously challenged Buddha to a contest of miraculous powers.

Buddha had refused their requests many times, but due to their resentment and jealousy, they persisted with their challenges following him to his teachings with their 90,000 followers and making demands to the King to stage a contest.
