佛說觀普賢菩薩行法經 1.5

1.5

Then the three great beings spoke with one voice to the Buddha, saying: "World-Honoured One! After the Tathāgata's passing, how should sentient beings give rise to the bodhisattva mind, practice the Mahāyāna vaipulya scriptures, and correctly reflect on the realm of the one reality? How can they not lose the mind of unsurpassed bodhi? How can they furthermore, without severing afflictions and without abandoning the five desires, purify their sense faculties and eradicate their sins? How can the pure, ordinary eyes born of their parents, without severing the five desires, be able to see things beyond all obstacles?"
