(Vimalakirti Sutra - Chapter VIII The Family of the Tathagatas 2)

Then, the Licchavi Vimalakirti said to the crown prince Manjusri, "Manjusri, what is the 'family of the Tathagatas'?"

Manjusri replied, "Noble sir, the family of the Tathagatas consists of all basic egoism; of ignorance and the thirst for existence; of lust, hate, and folly; of the four misapprehensions, of the five obscurations, of the six media of sense, of the seven abodes of consciousness, of the eight false paths, of the nine causes of irritation, of the paths of ten sins. Such is the family of the Tathagatas. In short, noble sir, the sixty-two kinds of convictions constitute the family of the Tathagatas!"

Vimalakirti: Manjusri, with what in mind do you say so?

Manjusri: Noble sir, one who stays in the fixed determination of the vision of the uncreated is not capable of conceiving the spirit of unexcelled perfect enlightenment. However, one who lives among created things, in the mines of passions, without seeing any truth, is indeed capable of conceiving the spirit of unexcelled perfect enlightenment.

Noble sir, flowers like the blue lotus, the red lotus, the white lotus, the water lily, and the moon lily do not grow on the dry ground in the wilderness, but do grow in the swamps and mud banks. Just so, the Buddha-qualities do not grow in living beings certainly destined for the uncreated but do grow in those living beings who are like swamps and mud banks of passions. Likewise, as seeds do not grow in the sky but do grow in the earth, so the Buddha-qualities do not grow in those determined for the absolute but do grow in those who conceive the spirit of enlightenment, after having produced a Sumeru-like mountain of egoistic views.

Noble sir, through these considerations one can understand that all passions constitute the family of the Tathagatas. For example, noble sir, without going out into the great ocean, it is impossible to find precious, priceless pearls. Likewise, without going into the ocean of passions, it is impossible to obtain the mind of omniscience.

(維摩詰所說經第八品 佛道之2)

於是維摩詰問文殊師利。何等為如來種。文殊師利言。有身為種。無明有愛為種。貪恚癡為種。四顛倒為種。五蓋為種。六入為種。七識處為種。八邪法為種。九惱處為種。十不善道為種。以要言之。六十二見及一切煩惱皆是佛種。曰何謂也。答曰。若見無為入正位者。不能復發阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心。譬如高原陸地不生蓮華卑濕淤泥乃生此華。如是見無為法入正位者。終不復能生於佛法。煩惱泥中乃有眾生起佛法耳。又如殖種於空終不得生。糞壤之地乃能滋茂。如是入無為正位者不生佛法。起於我見如須彌山。猶能發于阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心生佛法矣。是故當知一切煩惱為如來種。譬如不下巨海不能得無價寶珠。如是不入煩惱大海。則不能得一切智寶。
