袈裟十利 [jia sha shi li]—The Ten Benefits of the Kasaya Robe — 【Technical Term】 The Sūtra on the Contemplation of the Mind-Ground (心地觀經 [xin de guan jing], Xīndì Guānjīng) lists ten benefits: 1. It covers the body, removes shame, and inspires a sense of moral shame and compunction (慚愧 [can kui], cánkuì). 2. It protects from cold, heat, and insects. 3. It displays the form of a śramaṇa (沙門 [sha men], shāmén); those who see it rejoice and abandon evil thoughts. 4. It is like a precious banner (寶幢 [bao chuang], bǎozhuàng) for humans and devas, generating the merit of being reborn in Brahmā's heaven (梵天 [fan tian], Fàntiān). 5. When wearing it, one conceives of it as a precious stupa (寶塔 [bao ta], bǎotǎ), and all sins are extinguished. 6. Its simple color generates non-attachment. 7. The 袈裟 [jia sha] (jiāshā) is the pure robe of the Buddha; it permanently cuts off afflictions (煩惱 [fan nao], fánnǎo) and acts as a fertile field. 8. It eliminates sins and engenders the Ten Good Deeds (十善 [shi shan], shíshàn). 9. Like a fertile field, it can grow the sprouts of Bodhi (菩提 [pu ti], pútí). 10. Like armor (甲冑 [jia zhou], jiǎzhòu), the poisonous arrows of afflictions cannot harm. Therefore, all Buddhas of the three times (三世諸佛 [san shi zhu fu], sānshì zhūfó) wear it.
袈裟十利—【名數】心地觀經五列舉十利：一、覆身離羞恥而具慚愧。二、離寒熱蚊蟲。三、示沙門之相，見者歡喜，離邪心。四、是人天寶幢相，生梵天之福。五、著之時，生寶塔想，滅諸罪。六、壞色，生不貪欲。七、袈裟是佛淨衣，永斷煩惱而作良田。八、消罪而生十善。九、如良田，能增長菩提之芽。十、如甲冑，煩惱之毒箭不能害。是故三世諸佛共服之。
