2015 Kathina Ceremony

Karuna Buddhist Vihara

Arrive 10:00 am ~ Meal offering (vegetarian) 10:45 am
Robe offering ceremony 1:00 pm

At the end of the three-month Rains Retreat, the lay community gathers to offer the monastic sangha robe cloth and supplies that will be useful for the coming year. It is both a significant and joyful occasion acknowledging the relationship of friendship and mutual support between the lay people and the monastics.
This is the very first kathina to be offered at Karuna Buddhist Vihara and we are delighted to have six bhikkhunis from three different monasteries join us for the celebration.
For anyone who would like to participate in the offering, a list of useful items can be found by clicking here. Financial contributions can be made out to ‘Karuna Buddhist Vihara’ or see other pages on our website to donate through PayPal and for more information.
Your donations to KBV are tax deductible. All your support is appreciated. We hope to see you on November 15th at the Kathina. |
Yours in the Dhamma,
The KBV Kathina Committee
