梵網經菩薩戒本疏 5.90

5.90

六、輕重者，約境，前人有利鈍不同，謂利根授邪法令失大益，或能謗毀大乘；鈍根反上，故有輕重。若約心，有瞋心、姤心等諸惡，亦有耎、中、上差別。若約事，損益有多少，皆有輕重，單、雙、一合可准知耳。

Sixth, degrees of gravity: In terms of the object, the other persons differ in being sharp or dull; that is, imparting perverse teachings to one of sharp faculties causes them to lose great benefit, or may lead them to slander the Mahāyāna, whereas with dull faculties it is contrary to the above; therefore there are lighter and graver [offenses]. In terms of the mind, there are various evils such as wrath and jealousy, and there are also distinctions of weak, middling, and intense. In terms of the matter, the harm and benefit vary in quantity; all have lighter and graver [aspects], which can be understood accordingly whether taken singly, doubly, or combined as one.
