2.36

「大慧!彼因者有六種,謂當有因、相續因、相因、作因、顯示因、待因。當有因者,作因已,內外法生。相續因者,作攀緣已,內外法生陰種子等。相因者,作無間相相續生。作因者,作增上事,如轉輪王。顯示因者,妄想事生已,相現作所作,如燈照色等。待因者,滅時作相續斷,不妄想性生。」

"Mahāmati, there are six kinds of those causes: the cause of future existence, the cause of continuity, the cause of characteristics, the efficient cause, the revealing cause, and the dependent cause. The cause of future existence is: after the cause is produced, internal and external dharmas arise. The cause of continuity is: after grasping objective conditions is produced, internal and external dharmas produce the seeds of the aggregates and so forth. The cause of characteristics is: producing the characteristic of uninterruptedness, which arises continuously. The efficient cause is: performing predominant actions, like a wheel-turning king. The revealing cause is: after falsely imagined affairs have arisen, their characteristics manifest what acts and what is acted upon, like a lamp illuminating forms and the like. The dependent cause is: when ceasing occurs, it produces the cessation of continuity, and an unfalsely imagined nature arises."
