Buy Katha Tibetan Shawls SET 5 colours

Set of 5 Kathas in the colors of the 5 Dhyani Buddhas, elegantly adorned with the 8 Auspicious Symbols.

In the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, a Katha serves as a greeting scarf or shawl, used for demonstrating respect for your guest by offering them a scarf upon arrival, similar to giving flowers or a gift in the West. This respectful gesture strengthens the bond between the host and the guest.

In addition to welcoming guests, Kathas are also used to drape over Buddha statues or Thangkas, magnificent scroll paintings. This act symbolizes reverence and devotion to the Buddha and contributes to the sacred atmosphere surrounding these spiritual representations.

Furthermore, Kathas are used to decorate the altar, with the scarf serving as a colorful addition that enhances the sacred space. The symbolic significance of the Katha goes beyond its physical form; it represents hospitality, respect, and reverence within the rich context of Tibetan Buddhist culture.

Most Tibetan textile products hold spiritual or symbolic meanings for Tibetans and are used as decorations for the altar, the 'Gompa' (meditation space), or the home.
