Time & Tradition
Many times, when we read and cultivate inspiration from articles about the traditional Buddhist holy days, we might wonder - how do we integrate this information into our modern daily lives?
This pocket-sized calendar was created to be a convenient and useful tool for a lay practitioner's daily life. It is composed of significant dates, chanting, references to the different seasonal cycles and methods of calculating time for traditional medicine and Dhamma practitioners alike. Our intentions for creating this resource are to support the integration and observation of these important days, to encourage the tracking of the solar, lunar and seasonal cycles, and to provide opportunities to learn more about the tradition we observe.
Easy to bring with you on the go, this 90-page pocket calendar contains:
Five Prostrations, Aspiration & Dedication chanting
Daily & Monthly Lunar days & months
Monthly Solar movements
Buddhist holy days from the Thai calendar & accompanying chanting
Homage to teachers and reusi
Holidays & Festivals in Thailand
Six Season Causative Factor chart
The collection of these foundational elements are designed to support your daily practice, wherever you are in the world.

This 9-month calendar begins with August 2026 and goes through the beginning of April 2027 – to Songkran, the new year.
-
Each weekly layout has space to jot down your daily to-dos while providing critical information about the lunar day, lunar month, movement of the sun, significant days in the Thai calendar, Buddhist holy days, chanting, and memorial dates of teachers in our lineage who have passed away. There are verses of Dhamma throughout the calendar and select images provided to inspire.
-
As with all books, we encourage you to handle this calendar with respect and care. It is best to never place it on the floor, by or under one’s feet, or in a low place. Books, texts, words of the Dhamma and images of Buddhas and teachers should be kept in high places, handled carefully, and shown respect.

This first edition pocket calendar is a project to represent a traditional calendar. Bringing together important dates in the year, such as the phases of the moon, festivals, holy days, dates of the passing of teachers as well as information relevant to Buddhism in Thailand, we created this book as a resource to support one’s practice.
Traditional calendars are both based on Solar and Lunar cycles, thus the New Year isn't the first numbered month. This calendar reflects August 2026 through Songkran in April 2027 and includes Thai and Pali methods for calculating time.
