Thailand: The sacred white oxen. The Royal Ploughing Ceremony is an ancient Brahman ritual held each year in Bangkok at Sanam Luang in front of the Grand Palace

The Royal Ploughing Ceremony is an ancient Brahman ritual held each year in Bangkok at Sanam Luang in front of the Grand Palace. The event is performed to gain an auspicious start to the rice growing season. Sacred white oxen plough the Sanam Luang field, which is then sown with seeds blessed by the king. Farmers then collect the seeds to replant in their own fields. This ceremony is also performed in Cambodia and Sri Lanka.
