天台菩薩戒疏 2.40

2.40

第三十二、畜造非滅戒。菩薩畜造，須合軌儀，內有仁慈，外無侵害。今反畜造非法之物，販賣與人，自他增過，故制犯也。別具四緣：一、是非法物，二、恃勢，三、惡心，四、故畜販賣，便犯。就文為二：初標名，列不應之事；次「若故」下違制結犯。初有六：一、販賣殺具，二、畜輕秤小斗，三、因勢取財，四、害心繫縛人畜，五、破壞成功，六、長養猫狗。此之六物，並能損害，故制畜用。財物入手，屬前盜戒。今從不應，故結輕垢。結犯如文。

Thirty-second: the precept against keeping and making illicit [instruments of] destruction. For a bodhisattva to keep and make things, it must accord with the rules and deportment, possessing benevolence within and doing no harm without. Now, by contrast, to keep and make illicit items, selling them to others, increases faults for both oneself and others; therefore, an offense was instituted. It specifically comprises four conditions: 1. being an illicit item; 2. relying on power; 3. a malicious mind; and 4. intentionally keeping and selling [it]—whereupon one commits an offense. The text has two parts: first, indicating the name and listing the unbefitting matters; next, from "if intentionally" onward, determining the offense for violating the prohibition. The first has six: 1. selling weapons of killing; 2. keeping light scales and small bushels; 3. taking property by relying on influence; 4. binding humans and animals with harmful intent; 5. destroying what has been successfully accomplished; and 6. rearing cats and dogs. These six matters all can cause harm, so keeping and using them was prohibited. When wealth and goods are acquired into one's hands, it falls under the previous precept against stealing. Here, since it derives from unbefitting behavior, a minor defilement is determined. The determination of the offense is as in the text.
