【The Varieties of Karma】- environmental effect

(c') Environmental effects

This is the "primary effect" (主上果) or the "environmental effect" (增上果).  Primary means what is primary.  Other than being primary, there is also the meaning of the  "environmental" effect.  This means that...in the conscious-only school there is an analogy for this.  It is much like a farmer, once you have sow the seeds for grains, when the time comes for harvest, this (environmental effect) is much like harvesting.  In other words, with whatever that you have done, certainly with what relates to you, there will be an effect.  After having carried out many actions in the world, the direct effect (the resultant person) comprises of the fruitional effect spoken earlier and the causally concordant effect.   Then externally there is another retributive effect which is called the resultant person's resource effect or the environmental effect.

业果 : 增上果

主上果或增上果,

[主上果或增上果],这个[主]就是主要的,主要的上面它还有[增上]。这个意思就是平常我们就唯识上面举一个比喻啊,它说就好像农夫,你种了谷子以后,到了收割一样,收割一样。换句话说,你做了什么事情以后,你一定跟你相关的,它有回报。所以我们在这世间做了很多事情以后,这个正报是前面的异熟、等流。然后呢,外面这其他的回报,这个就是我们的,叫作士用果或者增上果。
