We warmly invite you to join us for the annual Kathina Ceremony on October 24, 2025, at the Aloko Buddhist Center. This significant event marks the end of the Vassa (rainy retreat) and is a time of great merit and communal harmony. We are deeply grateful to our main sponsor, Mr. Lalith Priyantha & his family, for their generous support.
Kathina Ceremony — Offerings
The ceremony will be a special occasion as our resident monks, Venerable Dhammaloka and Venerable Rahula, will be receiving the Kathina Cheevara (Kathina Robe). The day will also include a Dana offering for a total of 12 invited monks.
Your presence and participation would be an honor to the Sangha and a blessing for all. You can also be a part of this meritorious occasion by offering:
