Description
Jajanka (जजंका) or Kokha is a profound symbol of spiritual continuity and self-purification, an essential component of Hindu and Newari ritual practices in Nepal.
This sacred thread is traditionally crafted from many rounds of white cotton thread, forming a perfect circle (often about two feet in diameter) and tied with a small piece of red or colorful cloth to symbolize the integration of the beginning with the end—Creation, Maintenance, and Fullness of Life.
Jajanka is worn like a garland around the neck by the worshipper or the person being celebrated. It serves as a spiritual boundary, reminding the wearer of patience, self-respect, and personal limits.
