律云。無盡財蓋子母展轉。無盡故○兩京記云。寺中有無盡藏。又則天經序云。將二親之所蓄。用兩京之舊[邱-丘+(乏-之+ㄠ)]莫不總結招提之宇。咸充無盡之藏○十誦律云。以佛塔物出息。佛聽之○僧祇云。供養佛華多。聽賣買香油。猶多者。賣入佛無盡財中(詳諸律。三寶皆有無盡財)。
The Vinaya says: "'Inexhaustible wealth' refers to the unending cycle of principal and interest. The Record of the Two Capitals says: 'In the monasteries there are inexhaustible treasuries.' Furthermore, Empress Zetian's Preface to the Sūtra says: 'Taking what was amassed by the two parents, and employing the former dwellings in the two capitals, none failed to be united as shrines of the Saṃgha, all serving as inexhaustible treasuries.' The Ten-Recitation Vinaya says: 'To lend out property belonging to the Buddha's stūpa with interest, the Buddha permitted it.' The Mahāsāṃghika Vinaya says: 'If flowers offered to the Buddha are plentiful, it is permitted to sell them to buy incense oil; if there is still an excess, sell them and enter it into the Buddha's inexhaustible wealth.' (Examining the various vinayas, the Three Jewels all have inexhaustible wealth.)
