問:按《攝大乘》云,菩薩留惑證一切智;今云悲願能招於生得至佛果,豈不相違?又生但由悲願而致,何用煩惱?不退菩薩而不斷耶?

Question: According to the Mahāyānasaṃgraha, bodhisattvas retain defilements to realize omniscience; now it says that compassion and vows can invite birth and lead up to the fruit of buddhahood—is this not contradictory? Furthermore, if birth is brought about solely by compassion and vows, what use are defilements? Why do non-retrogressing bodhisattvas not abandon them?
