2.78

一、訶色欲者，所謂男子、女人形貌端嚴，修目高眉，朱脣素齒，及世間寶物，青、黃、赤、白、紅、紫、縹、綠，種種妙色，能令愚人見即生愛，作諸惡業。如頻婆娑羅王以色欲故，身入敵國，獨在婬女阿梵婆羅房中。優填王以色染故，截五百仙人手足。如是等種種因緣知色過罪，如《摩訶衍》中廣說。

First, scolding desire for form: namely, the handsome and elegant appearance of men and women, with slender eyes, high brows, vermilion lips, and white teeth; as well as worldly precious objects of blue, yellow, red, white, crimson, purple, light blue, green, and various wonderful colors, which make foolish people, upon seeing them, immediately generate attachment and commit various evil deeds. For example, King Bimbisāra, on account of desire for form, entered an enemy state alone into the chamber of the courtesan Āmrapālī. King Udayana, on account of lustful attachment to form, severed the hands and feet of five hundred ṛṣis. Through such various conditions, know the faults and transgressions of form, as extensively explained in the Mahāyāna [Treatise].
