7.27

《菩薩戒經》云：「資生順道之具。」《中阿含》云：「所蓄物可資身進道者，即是增長善法之具。」《辯正論》云：「沙門者，行超俗表，心游塵外，故應器非廊廟所陳，染衣異朝宗之服。」《北山錄》云：「簠（音甫）、簋（音軌，祭器，內圓外方）、俎（莊呂切，肉爼也）豆，制度文章，為禮之器。升降上下周旋裼（先的）襲（似立），為禮之文。鐘鼓管磬，羽籥干戚（籥音藥，先王制舞，文以羽籥干戚。籥如笛，三孔而短。干，盾也。戚，矛也）為樂之器。屈伸俯仰，綴兆舒疾，為樂之文。置茲則禮樂廢矣。繕寫繢刻，香臺法机，為道德之器。髠祖拜繞，禪講齋戒，為道德之文。弛茲則道德微矣。」

The Bodhisattva Precepts Sūtra says: "Implements for sustaining life and conforming to the Way." The Madhyama Āgama says: "Objects stored that can sustain the body and advance the Way are implements that increase wholesome dharmas." The Bianzheng lun says: "Śramaṇas have conduct surpassing the ordinary world, and their minds wander beyond worldly dust; therefore, their alms-bowls are not what is displayed in court halls, and their dyed robes differ from the garments of royal audience." The Beishan lu says: "The fu and gui baskets, the zu chopping board and dou platters, with their regulations and designs, are the implements of ritual propriety. Ascending and descending, moving about, bearing the shoulder and layering robes, are the outward forms of ritual propriety. Bells, drums, pipes, and chiming stones, feathers, flutes, shields, and axes are the implements of music. Bending and stretching, bowing and looking up, the measured movements slow and fast, are the outward forms of music. If these are set aside, ritual propriety and music fall into disuse. Copying texts and painting statues, incense tables and Dharma low-tables, are the implements of virtue and the Way. Shaving the head, prostrating, circumambulating, meditating, lecturing, fasting, and observing precepts, are the outward forms of virtue and the Way. If these are relaxed, virtue and the Way decline."
