Englishsaṃgraha-vastu, nt. (= Pali saṃgahavatthu), article of attraction, means by which a Buddha or (more often in BHS) a Bodhisattva attracts, draws to himself and to religious life, creatures. The literal mg. has been much disputed
it seems to me clarified by LV 〔429.13〕 where reference is made to the Buddhaʼs cleverness in drawing-in creatures (sattvasaṃgrahakauśalyaṃ) by the net (-jālena) of the 4 saṃgrahavastu
with this cf. Gv 〔495.20〕, cited s.v. saṃgraha. As in Pali, there are four of these: dāna, priya-vacana (or the like), artha-caryā (or -kriyā), and samānārthatā (or samānasukhaduḥkhatā), qq.v.
they are listed LV 〔38.16—17〕
