復次諸轉識，與阿賴耶識，作二緣性等者，景云：於現法中長養彼種子故，謂依轉識熏賴耶，由此因緣善等轉識，更增長明了熾盛，熏成三性，名言種子。此則現行得為因緣，非望識體，彼種無別體，攬識為性，故總望識說作因緣，即十因中生起因。

Regarding 'Furthermore, the evolving consciousnesses serve as two conditions for the ālayavijñāna, etc.': Jing says: In the present life they nourish its seeds, meaning that relying on the evolving consciousnesses, they perfume the ālayavijñāna; through this causal condition, the evolving consciousnesses such as wholesome ones become further increased, lucid, and intense, perfuming and establishing the name-and-symbol seeds of the three natures. Here, the actual functioning is able to serve as the condition as cause; this is not in relation to the substance of consciousness, for those seeds have no separate substance and take consciousness as their nature; therefore, in general reference to consciousness, it is said to serve as condition as cause, which is precisely the generative cause among the ten causes.
