"I used mine as a rug"?

that may be the special level of hell, the one with the people who talk at the theater.

Well, from my admittedly-limited understanding of Buddhism, it seems like alternate use would be even less of an problem. Non-attachment is a key concept, and getting bent out of shape would be a result of attachment. The ad says it's padded, which indicates to me that the purpose of the rug is to allow enough comfort to spend more time in prayer and meditation -- it's a tool, not a sacred object.

I could, of course, be quite wrong about this.
