BuddisM Monk clothing
Buddha clothing in warm colors, made of organic material and comfortable fit. Clothing for Buddhists is not important. A Buddhist attaches no value to material affairs and secure and is not shared with clothing. Clothing is sometimes used to indicate how important someone is in a community. Also you can see how someone is learned.
In the monastery in Tibet you may see at the height of the combs on the hats of monks how much they have studied in holy books. The colonization of Buddhist countries and their relations with the West have brought about profound changes in Buddhism.
Color of the robes
The robe dye is allowed to be obtained from six kinds of substances: roots and tubers, plants, bark, leaves, flowers and fruits. They should be boiled in water for a long time to get the dun dye. Saffron and ochre (from the jackfruit's heartwood) are the most prevalent colours today. Though there is a tendency amongst forest monks to wear ochre and city monks to wear saffron, but this is not always the rule.
Buddist Robes, Jackets and TROUSERS
The Buddism robe
The Buddhist monastic robe is so versatile that it can be used, besides what is already mentioned, as a blanket, a seat-spread, a groundsheet, a head-cover, a windbreak and more. It is easy to clean and repair. It is perhaps the oldest style of dress still in fashion after 2,500 years. The robes serve not just as a kind of uniform to remind the wearer that he or she is a member of a larger universal community.
