المعنى
The act of religious worship.
خلفية ثقافية
When worshipping, one must perform the 'Aing-ga-nga-ba' (Five-point prostration). This means the forehead, two hands, and two knees must touch the ground three times. Every Buddhist home has a 'Hpaya-sin' (Buddha shelf). It is always placed at the highest point in the room, and one should never point their feet towards it while 'hki: hko:'. In many state schools, the day begins with students 'hki: hko:'-ing the Buddha to cultivate discipline and mindfulness. Drivers often have a small Buddha image on their dashboard. They will quickly 'hki: hko:' (with one hand or a nod) when passing a famous pagoda for safety.
The Three Bows
Always bow three times. The first is for the Buddha, the second for the Dhamma (teachings), and the third for the Sangha (monks).
Separable Verb
If you want to sound more native, say 'ဘုရားရှိခိုးဦးမယ်' (I'll worship first) when you're about to start.
