Regarding "seven entities are also called results": excluding the preceding five links, the remaining seven, such as consciousness, are called "entities" because they are the basis and entities upon which defilement and karma depend. These seven entities are also called "results"; by logical extension from the remaining dharmas, they are also called "causes"—namely, ignorance and formation are the causes, and the five beginning with consciousness are the results; craving, grasping, and existence are the causes, and birth and aging-and-death are the results.
