供袈裟功德：海濤法師：雖然在家眾自身不能著袈裟，但若是禮敬僧伽與袈裟，或發心供養袈裟等，也獲福無量
出家人是我們的福田，所以出家人，天神也以出家人做福田。能夠供養修行的出家人，天上的神和世間的人才會有福報。所謂福報，就是長壽、健康、富貴，一切滿願。
[袈裟，在一般人心中的印象，便是佛教出家人所穿的衣服。然而袈裟的意義絕非僅止於此，它是為求解脫之人所穿法服，因而有著"善哉解脫服"之稱。它更有著自利、利他的種種功德，所以也叫福田衣，田地有生長的意義，代表了佛法的利己利人，種種功德的相互滋長。]
[雖然在家眾自身不能著袈裟，但若是禮敬僧伽與袈裟，或發心供養袈裟等，也獲福無量。]
自己也發願，將來來世也可以穿著袈裟。"所謂布施者，必獲其利益，若為樂故施，後必得安樂，供養已訖，當願眾生，所作皆辦，具足佛法。
Merits of Offering Robes to Sangha
From Sutra,
Robe offering, extremely glorious.
Always born in high cast and have good physical shape.
A person will have sense of good conscience.
Person will be renowned due to having accumulated the good karma.
~ by Buddha.
In this life the person will be free from obstacle, healthy and have perfect body form. Success will be attained in business, good fortune and possessions will be obtained.
The act of offering robes to the Sangha, it’s a symbol of offering protection from the heat and cold. Due to this merit accumulated, in the next life the person will be
1) Liberated from the suffering of the hell (hot and cold realms).
2) By doing this action of robe dana, one will be free from the suffering of hungry ghost realm (thirst and hunger).
3) Take rebirth in the human form with complete perfect physical shape, attractive, conceivably pleasant and beautiful. Having high status like the lineage of a King. One will have a good sense of conscience and integrity, well esteemed by others, peace and happiness.
Having accumulated good karma by this deed, for e.g. – In the past the Brahmin offered a white robe to the Buddha Bhagavan. The Buddha then prophesized him to be born in the future as Ngonshy Zangpo, who attained Buddhahood from the merits of offering the robe to Buddha. Likewise these are the great benefits of offering robes to the Sangha.
