Homage Ceremony: 

Homage paying ceremony is organized for a number of occasions, such as paying respects to the teachers; paying homage to monks; and others. In all such homage ceremony, especially homage for teachers (that I have personally witnessed), reverence as paid in so teachers and monks. When I witnessed the homage first time by our students at MIIT Mandalay, Myanmar, I cannot express my feelings but what I can say is I was very much emotional and full of tears. The students kneel down and pay their respects, moreover they shall also pray for the teachers. I have seen this great tradition in all, Buddhists, Hindus and others.

Donation Ceremony: 

Though, donation and generosity is basic instinct in every Burmese. In fact, every household or every body to their respective capacity donate something almost every week or a month. When it comes of some occasions, related to happiness or even death of some body in the family, oh my God, the amount and way by which the Burmese people donate is huge. The monks are generally invited in their house, offer prayers on the occasion and feed the monks with variety of food items; and finally donate eatables, clothes, money etc. as donation.
