四分律行事鈔資持記 2.368

2.368

三中，唯明四方常住，初二句約義判定。下準文決通，初句指經。言罪重者，即上《涅槃》等。諸下，引律，初示無文。故下，取義。謂若許賣者，必應開受；既不合受，驗不可賣，故云意知。若準《五百問》，施佛牛奴，得受使用，不得賣；即為明據，如下所引。

In the third, only four-directions permanent property is clarified. The first two sentences settle the matter based on principle. Below, it resolves based on texts: the first sentence points to the sūtra. "The offense is grave" refers to the Nirvāṇa Sūtra, etc., above. From "The various..." downward, citing the Vinaya: first, it shows that there is no explicit text. From "Therefore..." downward, it deduces the meaning. It means that if selling were permitted, receiving it would certainly be allowed; since it is not permissible to receive, this proves it cannot be sold; hence it says "known by intention." According to the Five Hundred Questions, when an ox or slave is donated to the Buddha, one may receive and use them, but not sell them; this serves as clear evidence, as cited below.
