Ashta (Sacred Tibetan Textiles) Ultra Unlined Journal

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Artistic, religious and cultural traditions unite in the handwoven fabric of this Sacred Tibetan Textiles design. For centuries, Muslim families in Varanasi, India, have practised the art of handweaving silks to create cloths and vestments for sacred rituals.

The city lies just 12 kilometres from the Buddhist pilgrimage site Sarnath, where the Buddha first gave his sermon upon becoming enlightened, and so Islamic, Buddhist, and even Hindu practices have become woven together in the area.

The fabric reproduced on this cover comes straight from the Kasim Silk Emporium in Varanasi and is an authentic expression of the weaver’s cultural heritage. In this design, created for a Buddhist monastery, the weavers have portrayed the path to enlightenment, both in the symbolic pattern and in the brightness of the colours chosen.

With this Ashta (Sacred Tibetan Textiles) Ultra Unlined Journal, we pay tribute to the rich heritage of Indian handweaving and to the craftspeople who continue this devotional practice today.
