2.8

The Ancient Record states: When Linde entered the Tang, he met the venerable Rongshun and asked: 'What is meant by the ālaya in the One Vehicle?' Shun said: 'All phenomena take the ālaya as their root. Expanded, it is immeasurable; summarized, there are five: first, the pure non-defined consciousness, which holds the seeds of the three natures; second, the amalavijñāna, which holds virtues numerous as the sands of the Ganges; third, the nature-manifestation consciousness, which holds the ten universal dharmas; fourth, the dharmadhātu-establishment consciousness, which holds the dharmas of the three realms; fifth, the dharmadhātu-Indra consciousness, which holds the inexhaustible Indranī dharmas. The entirety of the conditioned of the dharmadhātu and the entirety of the unconditioned of the dharmadhātu [are held]; therefore it is said that the ālaya, together with the three natures of good, etc., and the unconditioned, convenes and arises.'
