		Vassa (from Pāli vasso, Sanskrit varṣaḥ, both "rain", Thai: พรรษา, pansa or phansaa; Burmese: ဝာဆုိပ္ဝဲတော္‌), also called Rains Retreat, is the traditional retreat during the rainy season lasting for three lunar months from July to October.

		Vassa is followed by two of the major festivals of the year among Theravada Buddhists, Wan Awk Pansa and Kathina.
