Diwartapati is a companion for the Diwartapati Adhiṭṭhāna: the 108-day vow of reciting the Divā tapati verse (Dhammapada 387) kept by Theravada Buddhists in Myanmar. "The sun shines by day, the moon lights up the night, but the Buddha shines with radiance all day and all night." Start your vow on a day you choose, see which day and stage you are on, recite in the right order and keep the vow unbroken with a gentle daily reminder, in Burmese or English.
