> First: those made of silk, hemp, wool, and cotton. In the Dharmaguptaka Vinaya, sitting pads and sleeping pads are classed as heavy (both referring to those made with cotton batting and silk linings). A woolen rug five cubits long, three cubits wide, with fleece three finger-breadths long, is classed as light. This is an exceptional allowance in cold, snowy lands for woolen rugs similar in form to the kāṣāya; fully equipped with strips and patches, with the wool inside and the patches outside, and even those made of skin are likewise; thus skin is permitted as bedding, which means the three robes. Quilts are heavy objects and cannot be treated analogously, because the Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya mentions felt saṃghāṭīs; the rest are measured according to this standard. Quilts and quilt sheets are classed as heavy. Thin, soft felt that can be folded and worn is classed as light. Woolen rugs, brocades, and embroideries with distinct, brilliant patterns are classed as heavy; the Vinaya requires that they be dyed in broken colours before wearing, still matching the form of the three robes. Damasks and silks are classed as light; the Vinaya allows receiving robes of great value from kings and all kinds of fine robes from donors; although the text is not explicit, it does not prevent including expensive interlaced patterned silks in the light category; a later passage allows wearing expensive, open-weave garments. In the Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya, wound-covering robes, rain-bathing robes, water-filtration strainers, the two kinds of waistbands, and bedding are classed as light. In the Pañcavargika-vinaya, cotton cloth, single-layer sheets, undergarments, needle-and-thread pouches, bowl pouches, and leather sandal pouches are classed as light. By this standard, although a quilt sheet belongs to the quilt, it is no different from an undergarment or single-layer sheet, and can be categorized as light. Patterned silk, fine wool blankets, felt, and mosquito nets are classed as heavy. According to this, those smaller than the prescribed measure in the Dharmaguptaka Vinaya are classed as light, while those of standard measure that are stiff and thick are classed as heavy; being unsuitable to wear as robes, they differ from woolen rugs used as Dharma robes, which are thick, soft, and wearable. Rugs are categorized together with brocades and embroideries. Even if it is a small felt mat, if it belongs to a couch or table, it is classed as heavy along with them. Robes of the five primary colours are classed as light. In the Vinaya, dyed robes of superior color and brocade robes of superior color are permitted to be kept after being turned into kāṣāya colors. If authentic crimson and the like are judged to be classed as heavy, should yellow and white not be classed as light? White is prohibited by the Buddha from being worn, yet plain silk and hemp cloth are still judged to be classed as light; by analogy, yellow, blue-green, and red should also be distinguished! If so, why are woolen rugs, which the Buddha prescribed to be classed as light based on size without mentioning color, judged to be classed as heavy? Answer: They are free from intricate patterns, externally match the three robes, and are fully equipped with strips and patches; being identical in this way, they are classed as light. Based on the text of the Pañcavargika-vinaya, if they are of a pure single color, according to the Vinaya they are not heavy. Silk and hemp threads, regardless of quantity, are theoretically classed as light; but if they still contain cocoons or stalks, they enter the heavy category. Clothes bags (reaching from the navel in front to the waist in back) are classed as light according to the Pañcavargika-vinaya. Connected bags, long bags, quilt bags, and the like are classed as heavy. All secular garments, jackets, and coats that have already been dyed in broken colors or torn and patched are classed as light; those that remain white secular garments for ordinary wear are classed as heavy. Boots and shoes made with multicolored threads, as well as remaining men's and women's clothing, patchwork kerchiefs, pouches, and the like, are all classed as heavy. Embroidered or patterned bowl pouches are classed as light, following the bowl.
