Praying for Rain
Thailand is an agricultural country. Most Thai people in the rural areas grow crops especially rice for a living. Their fate inevitably depends on the falling of rain that will give life and freshness to their crops. The farmers will greatly suffer if there is drought. So they turn to have faith in beliefs that can alleviate their worry, prolong their hope and give inspiration to them. That is why there are various kinds of ceremonies of praying for plenty of rainfall, different in forms from region to region.
Due to the climate of the north, northeast and the central regions of Thailand, which is dry in the hot and the cool seasons, ceremonies of praying for rainfall are held in these regions.
The central region has the ceremony of parading a female cat to pray for rain. According to an ancient belief, the cries of a female cat could draw a rainfall. So the heart of the ceremony is when people throw water at the cat to make it cry a lot. In preparing for this tradition, a selected beautiful female cat is put into a thinly woven bamboo basket. The colorfully dressed farmers in a village will form a procession to parade the cat around the village. When walking, they will joyfully dance and sing a song with the lyrics asking for a rainfall enough for feeding their crops. The procession will pass from one house to another. Villagers staying in their houses when hearing the approaching procession will prepare a bowl of water and then splash it on the cat while the members of the procession will express their gladness as if it were really raining and say "Rain is falling. Rain is falling. A lot of rainfall. Our rice fields and the grass are all green now."
It is believed that if any house owner whose house the parade passes by fails to throw water at the cat, the cat will get angry and instead of calling rain for the farmers will use magic powers to prolong the drought. The ceremony ends after the procession has passed every house in the village.
Similarly to the central region, the northern people rely on the cat in asking for a rainfall. The cat is released into an enclosed area around which are placed earthen dolls of elephants, horses, cows, buffaloes, frogs, bull frogs, etc. Also included are sacrificial food and drinks and flowers. Villagers are required to observe either the Five or Eight Buddhist Precepts for three days beforehand. Then a number of Buddhist monks are invited to chant sutras while the villagers pray for plenty of rainfall.
