Join us in Africa for the MahaKathin Mahakaldan Kathin Ceremony to support Buddhist teachings and merit-making. Participate in the robe offerings at Wat Phra Dhammakaya Johannesburg and Wat Putth Cape Town in 2024.
Kathina Robe Offering is a wonderful Buddhist tradition that has been preserved for over 2500 years since the Lord Buddha’s time.
Kathina is a special event to accumulate tremendous merits that Buddhists eagerly look forward to each year. It is one of the more difficult merits to perform as compared to other merits due to the following reasons.
