13.16

身表許別形者，一切有宗許身表業形色為體，由思力故，別起如是如是身形，名身表業。形謂形色，猶如合掌殺縛等形。形即是表，表善惡故。表即是業，有造作故。此之形色依身起故，名身表業。

'Bodily informative [karma] is accepted as a particular shape': the Sarvāstivāda school accepts that bodily informative karma has physical shape as its substance; through the power of volition, such and such particular bodily shapes are separately arisen, which is called bodily informative karma. 'Shape' refers to physical shape, like the shapes of joining palms, killing, binding, and so forth. Shape is itself informative, because it informs of good and evil. Informative is itself karma, because it involves action. Since this physical shape arises dependent on the body, it is called bodily informative karma.
