The coronation (Rajabhiseka) was one of the most important rituals of the Burmese Kingdom. Similar to the neighboring countries Thailand, Cambodia and Laos the ceremony is largely influenced by the Indian Hindu Culture. Most of them were typically held in the Burmese month of Kason, but did not necessarily occur during the beginning of a reign. The Sasanalinkaya states that Bodawpaya, like his father, was crowned only after establishing control over the kingdom's administration and purifying the religious institutions. The coronation is then followed by the assumption of the Royal Residence. Following are the rituals done during the coronation of King Mindon on 14 May 1857.
