Satuditha
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Satuditha (Burmese: စတုဒိသာ; pronounced [sətṵdìθà]) is a traditional Burmese feast and merit-making activity that features prominently in Burmese culture, reinforcing the importance of generosity and almsgiving as a Burmese cultural norm.[1]
Satuditha is the Burmese pronunciation of the Pali term catudisā, which means the "four cardinal directions," in reference to the charitable act of offering free food or drink to those who come from the four points of the compass.[2]
