Katina at Saranath next month

Arrangements are being made to hold the annual Katina Cheevara Dana Ceremony on Nov 13 and 14 at the Mulagandha Kuti Vihara Maha Bodhi Society of India, Holy Isipathana Deer-Park, Sarnath, a release issued by the organizers said.

The Mulagandha Kuti Vihara at Sarnath – Varanasi is known all over the world for the ‘Sacred Relics of the Buddha’ enshrined in it. These Relics of the ‘Blessed One’ were found from Dhammarajika Stupas in Chir Tope, Taxila (Undivided India) and Bhattiprolu village in Guntur District, Andhra Pradesh (South India) by Archaeologists in the first half of the 19th Century.

The Sacred Relics are exhibited once a year for 3 days during the Anniversary Ceremony of the Vihara on Kartika Purnima (Full Moon Day in November).
