"This looks like one of those B'omarr Monk monasteries that I read about in my studies at the Temple."
―Ahsoka Tano[src]

The B'omarr Order,[4] which consisted of B'omarr Monks, was a religious order that believed in isolating themselves from all physical sensation to enhance the power of their minds. To that aim, enlightened monks had their brains transplanted into nutrient-filled jars.[5] Whenever they wanted to move, those bottled-brains used spider-like droid walkers,[1] with older monks using four-legged walkers, and more recent ones using a six-legged variant.[3]

The order built monasteries in the galaxy, including a monastery on the jungle world of Teth in Wild Space. Some of their temples were taken over by smugglers, who turned them into their personal retreats.[6] The B'omarr monks were also present on Tatooine,[1] but Jabba the Hutt assumed control of their monastery, turning it into his personal palace.[7] Despite that, Jabba allowed the monks to still roam around his appropriated palace, as he enjoyed the gruesome sight of them.[3]
