The villagers in the province closely relate to Pasak River. Such closeness is reflected "Um Pha Dam Nam" or 'Dive the Buddha Image into the Water Festival'. Phra Buddha Maha Thammaracha is highly revered ancient Buddha image of Phetchabun Province. This event is annually held on the fifteenth day of the waning moon in the 10th lunar month of during Sat Thai Period at Trai Pum Temple. The ceremony starts at 13:00. The image is carried around the town, so Buddhists can pay respect to it and stick gold leaf to its body. The next morning, people make merit as it is Sat Thai Day. Food, including krayasat, and other necessities are given to monks. The Buddha image is then taken to be immersed in the Pah Sak River by the governor of Phetchabun. After the ceremony, the water in the river is regarded as sacred. As a result, people swim in it or take the water to drink before the boat racing begins.
