HISTORY OF KATHINA

Kathina robe offering is a meaningful Buddhist tradition that has been preserved for over 2500 years since the Lord Buddha’s time. It is a custom established by the Buddha, permitting the lay community to make a respectful offering of robes to monks who have spent three months purifying their mind and body during Vassa, the Buddhist Rains Retreat. The Buddha's aim for this annual ceremony was to foster harmony within the monastic community and to allow a virtuous monk with worn out robes to receive a new set. This occasion can only be held once a year per temple, in the 1 month period following the end of Vassa.


We hope you can join us for the 2024 Kathina Ceremony this year!
