17.84

Ji says: Regarding the statement that 'it should be said to be wholly so, not partially,' this concerns moistening rebirth, not initiating karma. Although with initiating karma the ten courses of defilement are unmanifested, higher-realm defilements such as craving do not initiate karma. Therefore, now based on moistening rebirth, self-craving is the direct moistening and the rest are auxiliary moistenings, as will be explained below, in order to refute the Hīnayāna view that craving alone moistens rebirth. The Abhidharma, being based on direct moistening, speaks solely of self-craving, so there is no contradiction.
