量處輕重儀 2.7

2.7

已前一件，義通重輕。若布絹乃至綿絮之財，但非綺色分明者，入分。若錦繡氍氀，純同一色相狀減於法衣者，同上輕分。若以青黃赤白黑五大色染，并緋碧紅綠紫等上色染成者，無問多少輕重，並從衣財入分。若補方虎眼、檳榔接正、眾綵間錯者，入重。故《五分》中，錦綺毛𣯟若氈（謂廣長量如上大者）蚊厨，入重故也。又不同綾羅之財，雖衣體交錯，而色相純同故，律開著細鵝文相衣也。義準綾羅絞梭入輕，律開受王大價衣及種種好衣，并開大價疎衣，即知紗葛之屬例分也。

The above item in meaning pertains to both heavy and light property. If it is material such as plain cloth or silk up to silk floss and cotton batting, as long as it does not have distinct variegated colors, it enters into distribution. If it is brocade, embroidery, or woolen rugs, but of a single pure color and in appearance reduced from a Dharma robe, it is distributed as light property as above. If dyed with the five great colors—blue/green, yellow, red, white, and black—or dyed with superior colors such as crimson, cyan, pink, green, or purple, regardless of whether it is much or little, light or heavy, it all follows clothing material and enters into distribution. If patched with squares, tiger-eyes, betel-nut patterns, or intermingled with various colors, it is classified as heavy property. Therefore, in the Mahīśāsaka, brocade, patterned damask, woolen rugs, or felts (referring to those whose width and length are as large as described above) and mosquito nets enter into heavy property. Furthermore, they are unlike patterned silk and gauze fabrics, which, although the fabric weave is interlaced, have pure and uniform colors; hence the Vinaya permits the wearing of clothing with fine goose-pattern weaves. By meaning and analogy, patterned silk and gauze woven on the loom enter into light property; the Vinaya permits receiving highly valuable robes from kings and various fine robes, and also permits highly valuable thin robes; thus one knows that fabrics of thin silk, kudzu, and the like are distributed by analogy.
