One-Day Tour in Chiang Rai: Spiritual Escape to the Nine Sacred Chedis of Chiang Rai
The Chedis (Stupas) are considered sacred and miraculous monuments, often associated with extraordinary phenomena. According to the accounts passed down by our ancestors, on certain full moon days of the lunar calendar, unique events are said to occur. These include radiant beams of light, glowing brightly in hues of red, yellow, or white, encircling the chedi or shooting into the sky. Other occurrences may include refreshing rain falling in arid areas, creating a sense of well-being, or a fragrant aroma wafting around the sacred site, filling visitors with peace and joy. These phenomena, attributed to the miraculous power of the Buddha, inspire deep faith and reverence among devotees.
Chedis serve as sacred sites for Buddhists, housing the relics of the Lord Buddha. They are seen as physical representations of the Buddha himself, allowing worshippers to honor and remember his boundless compassion and dedication to spreading the teachings of Buddhism. These teachings aim to free humanity from suffering, bringing blessings and auspiciousness to the lives of the faithful.
The Nine Chedis and the Lanna Beliefs
According to ancient Lanna traditions, visiting the temple associated with one's birth year or performing merit-making at nine auspicious temples is believed to bring good fortune and well-being. Specifically, worshipping the Nine Sacred Chedis (Phra That Kao Chom) is thought to bring "peaceful living and happiness," or in the Lanna saying, "a life of abundance and sweetness." Such spiritual escape are believed to lead to success in work, finances, and overall life, fulfilling one's aspirations.
The Nine Chedis enshrine various relics of the Lord Buddha, each connected to a different part of his body. These sites are not only sacred but also carry significant histories and auspicious names. Worshippers who pay homage to all nine chedis are believed to receive profound blessings, bringing beauty and prosperity into their lives and those of their companions.
