答:《大品》云「菩薩於空不著故不證空」,即知不證空是方便也。又云「菩薩以方便力故為眾生受五欲,而無所染。」故知涉有不著亦是方便。

Answer: The Large Prajñāpāramitā says, "Because the bodhisattva does not cling to emptiness, he does not realize emptiness." Thus we know that not realizing emptiness is skillful means. It also says, "By the power of skillful means, the bodhisattva experiences the five desires for the sake of sentient beings, yet is without any defilement." Hence we know that entering existence without clinging is also skillful means.
