Lhabab Düchen occurs on the 22nd day of the 9th lunar month.This date commemorates the Buddha’s descent from the heavenly realm, where he had gone to impart teachings to his mother, Maya Devi (or Mayadevi), who had been reborn there. She had passed away seven days after his birth. To repay her kindness and liberate her from samsara, and also to benefit the gods, Buddha spent three months teaching in the realm of the gods. On this day, the karmic effects of our actions are multiplied millions of times. In the Vajrayana Buddhist tradition, people engage in virtuous activities and pray to gain merit and to mark this special occasion.
