The Significant of Medin Full Moon Poya Day - මැදින් පොහය දින ඇති වැදගත් කමි.


On a Medin Full Moon Poya, after the Buddha's Enlightenment, and seven years after he left the Royal Palace as Prince Siddhartha [Abhiniskaramanaya], He visited to meet his relations in Kimbulwatpura [his home town], kingdom of His beloved father King Suddodhana.


Listening to the sermons which were delivered by Buddha, King Suddodhana could attain Sakuradagami - Once returner, [second stage to the path to attain the Bliss of Nirvana] Queen Maha Prajapathi Gothami - attained Sowan, the first stage of Sainthood.
