The Robe Offering Ceremony is a significant Theravada tradition event that takes place after the three-month Rain Retreat. This unique festivity gathers fellow Buddhist practitioners to make offers of requisites such as robes or alms to the Sangha (the community of monks or nuns). This generous act of merit-making not only nurtures our virtuousness but also generates immeasurable goodness and blessings.
Dhammakami Buddhist Society will be hosting the annual Robe Offering Ceremony on 27th October 2018. Please come and join us in this joyous celebration. Program details and robe sales information can be found below.
