四分律行事鈔資持記 2.1282

2.1282

三中，《多論》分四，初明本染非法。欝金根，《方志》云：出烏仗那國，根黃赤可染衣。黃藍，《指歸》云：即今紅華，染紅黃色。落沙，應法師云：應云歎又，此云猩猩血。藍黛，即今藍青。點著吉者，謂以三如法色點上非色，論但犯輕，而律中本染須如，故注簡之。若先下，次明改如為非。若以下，三明點色是非。故下，四明先非後如。列諸色中，除紫草絳緋，餘並黃色。絳即赤色。

In the third, the *Sarvāstivāda Vinaya Vibhāṣā* divides into four: first, clarifying that the original dye is illicit. Turmeric root: the *Gazetteer* says it is produced in the country of Uḍḍiyāna; its root is yellowish-red and can dye robes. Safflower: the *Account* says it is today's red flower, which dyes a reddish-yellow color. Lac: Master Ying says it should be called *tānyou*, translated here as monkey blood. Indigo: that is today's indigo blue. Spotting with a duṣkṛta means spotting the illicit color with the three proper colors; the treatise only designates it as a light offense, but in the Vinaya the original dye must be proper, so the note distinguishes this. From 'If previously' onward, it next clarifies changing the proper to illicit. From 'If with' onward, the third clarifies whether the spotted color is proper or illicit. From 'Therefore' onward, the fourth clarifies first illicit and then proper. In listing the colors, excluding madder, deep crimson, and bright scarlet, the rest are all yellow. Deep crimson (*jiàng*) is red.
