On November 17th to 18th Wat Pah Nanachat held the yearly Robe-Offering-Ceremony (Kathina), which the Buddha allowed for a sangha of at least five monks who have spent the rains-retreat together, so that they can sew and dye themselves new robes before possibly moving on to other places.
As is customary in the Ajahn Chah tradition, the resident and visiting monks and the lay community start the Kathina ceremony by coming together for evening chanting, Dhamma talks and practice throughout the night.
The next morning there is a symbolic almsround in the monastery in which the laypeople put plain cooked rice into the bowls of the monks and novices.
The ceremonial offering of the Kathina then cloth takes place before the meal. During the day the sangha will have to work on cutting, sewing and dyeing at least one piece of the triple robe set out of the cloth offered in the morning.
When the robe is finished, it gets given to one monk chosen by the community, by reciting the Sangha transaction for this purpose in Pali.
