Three Dharma robes
The three dharma robes (Wyl. chos gos rnam gsum)—
- Saṅgati (Wyl. snam sbyar), a large patched shawl made of 32 patches, usually yellow in the Tibetan tradition, worn only by fully ordained monks.
- Uttarāsaṅga (Wyl. bla gos), a large patched shawl, usually yellow in the Tibetan tradition, which can be worn by both fully ordained monks and shramanera, often called chögö nowadays.
- antarvāsas (Wyl. mthang gos), the lower robe of a fully ordained monk, sown in pieces.
These three robes are part of the thirteen items of livelihood for monks as prescribed by the Buddha in the Vinaya.
