10.182

「雖爾就勝至生未生故」者，答。就勝說四，故無有過。就四食中，雖四皆能益現益當，二益現勝、二益當勝。熏之言寶。思食引已從業所資識種子力故後有得起。識起取果功能，名為種子。又解：述經部釋。此解似勝。思食引已從業所熏識種子力後有得起，或從業所熏識種子力識得現行後有得起。餘文可知。

"Even so, based on pre-eminence... what has arisen and what has not yet arisen" is the answer. Four are stated based on pre-eminence, so there is no fault. Among the four nutriments, although all four can benefit both the present and the future, two are pre-eminent in benefiting the present, and two are pre-eminent in benefiting the future. "Perfuming" (xun) means "imbuing". After volitional nutriment has drawn it forth, future existence can arise through the power of the seed of consciousness sustained by karma. Consciousness giving rise to the function of taking a result is called a seed. Another explanation says: This expounds the Sautrāntika explanation; this explanation appears superior. After volitional nutriment has drawn it forth, future existence can arise through the power of the seed of consciousness perfumed by karma; or, through the power of the seed of consciousness perfumed by karma, consciousness comes to manifest activity, and future existence can arise. The remaining text can be understood.
