The Kāṣāya buddhist monk robe consists of:
Antarvāsa
The antarvāsa is the inner robe covering the lower body. It is theundergarment that flows underneath the other layers of clothing. It has a largeneck, and almost entirely covers the torso. In representations of the Buddha,the bottom of the antarvāsa usually protrudes, and appears in the rough shapeof a triangle.
Uttarāsaṅga
A robe covering the upper body. It comes over the undergarment, orantarvāsa. In representations of the Buddha, the uttarāsaṅga rarely appears asthe uppermost garment, since it is often covered by the outer robe, or saṃghāti.
Saṃghāti
The saṃghāti is an outer robe used for various occasions. It comes overthe upper robe (uttarāsaṅga), and the undergarment (antarvāsa). In representationsof the Buddha, the saṃghāti is usually the most visible garment, with theundergarment or uttarāsaṅga protruding at the bottom. It is quite similar inshape to the Greek himation, and its shape and folds have been treated in Greekstyle in the Greco-Buddhist art of Gandhāra.

Theravāda (/ˌtɛrəˈvɑːdə/;Pāli, lit. "School of the Elders") is the most commonly accepted name of Buddhism's oldest existing school. The school's adherents, termed Theravādins, have preserved their version of Gautama Buddha's teaching or Buddha Dhamma in the Pāli Canon for over a millennium.
Theravada Buddhism in Southeast Asia is rooted in Ceylonese Buddhism that traveled from Sri Lanka to Burma and later to lower Thailand.
The Buddha, the Dhamma, and the Sangha are the three fundamental aspects of Theravāda Buddhist thought. The Buddha is the teacher of gods and men. The Dhamma consists of the teachings of the Buddha. It is the noble path made through the words and deeds of the Buddha that is to be followed. The path leads the follower from the Realm of Desire, to the Realm of Form, the Formless Realm with the ultimate destination being Nibbāna. The Sangha (gathering) refers to the two types of followers of the Buddha: laity and monastic. The monastic followers adhere to the Bhikkhu-way. Theravadin Bhikkhu lead a very disciplined life modeled after the Buddha, going from Pabbajjā or novice ordination (sāmaṇera) to Upasampada or higher ordination (Bhikkhu)
