In the rains season (Vassa) in Asia (a period which correlates to summer in Europe), the monks undertake the determination to remain in one place for three months.<\/p>\n

According to the scriptures, at the end of this period, The Buddha allowed the monks to ask for cloth with which they could amend their cloths or even make new clothes.<\/p>\n

The cloth the monks collected named of rags that had been discarded. As time went by, people, realizing this need, stuck hanging fabric from trees, so that the monks could \u2018find\u2019 them.
\nThe custom then developed in such a way that not only pieces of fabric were left on the trees, but also ready made clothes.
\nPeople spotted the opportunity to make offers of other requirements to the monks, as a gesture of support and appreciation for their practice.
\nnamed a ceremony called \u2018Kathina\u2019 was created, \u2018Katina\u2019 being the name of the loom that the monks use to sew their clothes using the cloth offered. During this ceremony, the monks offer Dhamma talks and there is also a time for people to meet and talk with the monks in a more informal way. In this event, the connection between the lay community and the monastic community becomes evident, as well as their benefit from this dynamic.<\/span><\/p>\n
