按《大論》五十二云：「云何略說安立種子？謂於阿賴耶識中，一切諸法遍計自性、妄執習氣，是名安立種子。然此習氣是實物有，是世俗有，望彼諸法不可定說異、不異相，猶如真如。」又按《攝論》第二云：「又若略說阿賴耶識用異熟識，一切種子為其自性。」又云：「阿賴耶識是實種子，是一切種子實因緣性。」准此多文，種子是有。

According to the Great Treatise (Yogācārabhūmi), fascicle fifty-two, it states: "How is the establishment of seeds explained in brief? Within the ālayavijñāna, the latencies of conceptualised nature and false clinging regarding all dharmas are called the establishment of seeds. Yet these latencies exist as real entities; they are conventional existents. With respect to those dharmas, they cannot be definitively stated to be of a distinct or non-distinct characteristic, just like suchness." Also, according to the Mahāyānasaṃgraha, fascicle two, it states: "Furthermore, if stated briefly, the ālayavijñāna takes the maturation consciousness, with all seeds, as its intrinsic nature." It also states: "The ālayavijñāna is the real seed; it is the nature of the real cause and condition of all seeds." In accordance with these many texts, seeds do exist.
