楞伽阿跋多羅寶經註解 1.471

1.471

上止言彼說三緣為能生之因，未言其所作之事。所作者何？若方便、若因果、若自相通乎三世。方便者，外道教法也；因果者，依彼教所修因果也；自相者，自心所現之相也。此三世之事自其近者言之，若探其本，而有無二種之相相承，覺想地轉，所謂八萬劫前，冥初生覺、覺生性、性生地，次第轉生二十五諦，皆由自己邪見過患熏習餘氣，作如是說也。

Above, it only stated that they speak of the three conditions as productive causes, without yet mentioning the affairs they perform. What are the things performed? Expedients, causes and effects, and svalakṣaṇas span across the three periods of time. 'Expedients' are the doctrines of the tīrthikas; 'causes and effects' are the causes and effects cultivated according to their teachings; 'svalakṣaṇas' are the characteristics appearing from their own minds. These affairs of the three periods of time are spoken of in terms of what is proximate. If one probes their root, the marks of the two kinds of having seeds and lacking seeds are handed down mutually, and the ground of reflective thought turns—namely, eighty thousand kalpas ago, from the Primal Darkness first arose buddhi (intellect), from buddhi arose ahaṃkāra (ego-nature), from ego-nature arose the mahābhūtas (elements), progressively transforming and giving rise to the twenty-five principles. All of this comes from the perfumed residual vāsanās of the faults of their own heterodox views, leading them to speak in this way.
