量處輕重儀 2.114

2.114

已前六件之事，號曰隨用輕收。由物體沈重，深非服用。然隨事趣要，更無過者，故從時用，例入輕收。既聖制開聽，故無定多少，律開刀鉢及餘眾器，現在僧分。外雖不論，準義必有，針縷刀尺，足可成衣，鉤𮢏玦紐，服常要具，香鑪澡罐之屬，匙箸鋺盞之流。文或顯晦，事義準酌，並如前列，通斷在輕。

The six items above are called 'light property gathered by virtue of utility.' Because their material substance is heavy, they are profoundly unsuited for bodily wearing. Yet according to circumstance they tend toward necessity, unsurpassed by anything else; therefore, following seasonal utility, they are routinely gathered into light property. Since the Sage's regulation allowed them, there is no fixed quantity: the Vinaya allows knives, pātras, and other various utensils to be distributed among the present saṅgha. Although not mentioned beyond this, in accordance with the principle they certainly must be included: needle, thread, knife, and ruler are sufficient to make robes; hooks, rings, discs, and toggles are constant essential requisites for clothing; items like censer burners and washing ewers, and things like spoons, chopsticks, bowls, and cups. Whether the texts are explicit or implicit, when measured by circumstance and principle, they are all as listed above and broadly judged as light property.
