The saṅghāṭī among the three robes (三衣僧伽梨): This sound is corrupt; it should be said as saṃghāti (僧伽致) or saṃghāṭī (僧伽𦙁). It is translated as 'joined' or 'double', meaning that it is cut into strips and joined together, and made with double layers. This single robe must be made of cut strips, whereas the other two robes may or may not be cut. According to the Dharmaguptaka school, the Sarvāstivādins and most others, it is not cut; according to the *Bhadrayānīya school, the Mahāsāṃghika and others, it is cut. If it is not cut, one simply attaches patches (tie, jue and fan) with fine stitches and that is all.
