Visakha Puja

The book begins with an editorial note, a message from the president, and His Majesty’s address to religious groups, setting a formal and commemorative tone for the Visakha Puja observance. It then presents reflective and literary pieces such as “Changing Clouds,” followed by the major liturgical section, “Morning & Evening Chanting,” which provides devotional texts used in Buddhist practice. The main body continues with doctrinal and reflective contributions, including “Moral Conduct,” “String of Pearls,” “The Questions of Deva,” “Six Things Unexcelled,” “Vipassanā,” “Buddhism Today,” “Interview on Buddhism,” “Buddhism in Siam,” “Popular Buddhism,” and “Buddhist Renaissance in Siam.” The closing sections include book reviews, contributor information, and executive names, giving the volume the character of both a commemorative Buddhist publication and a record of contemporary Buddhist intellectual, devotional, and organizational activity.
