According to tradition, the custom of building sand Chedi originates from Buddhist beliefs. It is believed that when there is an opportunity to make merit by visiting temples, during the journey back, there will be specks of soil, stones, sand, or gravel stuck to the feet. These items, which are within the temple grounds, are considered sacred possessions of the religion. Therefore, taking back soil, stones, or sand is considered a violation of the second precept, theft. Every year, there is a tradition of building sand Chedi during the Songkran festival. After the construction is completed, participants help carry sand to the temple area, prepared for use in constructing structures within the temple grounds. This is considered another form of accumulating merit and the opportunity to return sands back to the temple.
