Every year on 23rd September, all government offices, schools, and institutions are closed to mark the auspicious occasion of blessed rainy day. The day is marked at the end of the monsoon season in Bhutan.
On this day, all natural water resources in the country are considered to be sanctifying and it is believed that an outdoor bath will cleanse all of bad deeds, obstructions, defilements and accumulated bad karma. The holiday also marks the end of the farming season and the beginning of the harvest season.
On this day, families and friends traditionally gather for a meal together.
The RNR Family would like to wish you and your family a Happy Blessed Rainy Day! May this auspicious occasion of the blessed rainy day bring you peace, good health and happiness.
