A Khata (also called Khada) is a traditional Tibetan ceremonial scarf, often printed with a mantra. People from Tibet, Nepal, Bhutan, India, and nearby Himalayan regions use it during important cultural and religious events. The scarf holds deep meaning in Tibetan Buddhism and has influenced neighboring communities such as the Gorkha, Lepcha, and Hindustani people.

This practice began in Tibetan culture but spread to regions where Tibetan Buddhism thrives. Today, people present a Khata to honor guests, show respect, or mark significant life events. You’ll often see it in monasteries, temples, religious ceremonies, and traditional dances.

Beyond its beauty, the Khata carries religious and cultural significance. Offering one is a gesture of goodwill, blessings, and positive intentions—whether at a wedding, a pilgrimage, or a festival.
