2012 Calendar of Uposatha Days

2555-2556 BE

2011-2017

- Namo tassa bhagavato arahato sammā-sambuddhassa -

Here are this year's dates of Uposatha days as observed in Thai Buddhism (Dhammayutika and Mahānikāya sects). This calendar, provided by Metta Forest Monastery, follows the Dhammayut calculation—which, for the days marked with an asterisk, is one day later than the Mahānikāya. [1]

This calendar is also available as a Google Calendar. You can also import it directly into Apple's iCal — or any other app that supports iCalendar format.
