Significant of Binara Fulmoon Poyaday 

බිනර පෝය දිනය ඇති වැදගත්කම





It was on a Binara Full Moon Poya Day that Queen Mahaprajapathi Gothami, the stepmother of Prince Siddhartha, visited the Buddha in Kapilavastu and asked permission to enter the Bhikkhuni Order. The Buddha rejected her request. Although she made the same appeal again, the Blessed One did not give His consent.

Finally The Buddha considered the request of Mahaprajapathi Gothami and granted  permission to womenfolk to enter the Sasana. This took place on a Binara Full Moon Poya Day.






Theri Sangamitta brought the Sacred Jayasiri Maha Bo sapling to Anuradhapura.

The Buddha Visited to heaven to preach to his mother and spiritual 
multitude.
