Marking the day, Buddhist devotees offered various gift items, including fruits, flowers, and candles, to statues of Lord Buddha throughout the day.
The day of Madhu Purnima commemorates an occasion on which the Buddha retreated to the wilderness of Parileyya forest to bring peace between two quarreling factions of disciples. According to legend, a monkey and an elephant named Parileyyaka fed lord Buddha during this time, the elephant bringing fruit and the monkey bringing a honeycomb.
On the occasion, the speakers highlighted the deeply humanist worldview espoused by Lord Buddha in his teachings.
