大乘義章 2.26

2.26

別唯五者，所謂不信、懈怠、無明、掉及放逸。此之五種，體別餘數，故今取之為四十七。餘五不別，故不說之。云何不別？言邪解者，與通地中解脫數同。不正憶者，與通地中憶數體同。不順智者，與通地中慧數體同。言失念者，與通地中念數體同。亂與通地定數體同。問曰：邪解、不正憶等，與通地中心數法同，何勞復說為煩惱地？以此生惑功力等故。問曰：通中受想觸欲，何故不說為煩惱地？以不等故，大地不顯，故不說之。云何不等？想生見強，受及觸欲生愛中強，故曰不等。又問：何故不說思數為煩惱地？思是一切眾行之主，故不偏說為煩惱地。又思亦是生愛中強，故不說之。問曰：若言受想觸等生惑不齊故不說為煩惱地者，慧生見強，何故說為煩惱地乎？釋言：見中更不論慧，是故不可說慧為強。慧不強故，說之為地。

As for there being distinctly only five, they are non-faith, indolence, ignorance, restlessness, and negligence. These five kinds have substances distinct from other mental factors; therefore, they are now taken to make forty-seven. The remaining five are not distinct, and therefore are not mentioned. Why are they not distinct? What is called wrong view is identical with the mental factor of determination in the universal ground. Incorrect recollection is identical in substance with the mental factor of recollection in the universal ground. Discordant knowledge is identical in substance with the mental factor of wisdom in the universal ground. Loss of mindfulness is identical in substance with the mental factor of mindfulness in the universal ground. Distraction is identical in substance with the mental factor of concentration in the universal ground. Question: If wrong view, incorrect recollection, and the like are identical with the mental factors in the universal ground, why bother to speak of them again as the defilement ground? Because their power in giving rise to delusion is equal. Question: Why are sensation, perception, contact, and desire from the universal ground not spoken of as the defilement ground? Because they are unequal, their great ground is not evident, so they are not mentioned. How are they unequal? Perception is stronger in producing views, while sensation, contact, and desire are stronger in producing craving; hence they are called unequal. Question again: Why is the mental factor of volition not spoken of as the defilement ground? Volition is the master of all activities, so it is not spoken of exclusively as the defilement ground. Furthermore, volition is also stronger in producing craving; hence it is not mentioned. Question: If you say that sensation, perception, contact, and so forth are not spoken of as the defilement ground because they give rise to delusion unequally, wisdom is stronger in producing views; why is it spoken of as the defilement ground? The explanation is: Within views, wisdom is not separately discussed; therefore, wisdom cannot be said to be stronger. Because wisdom is not stronger, it is spoken of as a ground.
