【The Twelve Factors of Dependent-Arising】- Consciousness of the casual period 2 

If you have created nonvirtuous karma, why did you do it? It was because you did not understand that things operate under the laws of karma and its effects, cause and effects, and dependent arising. Hence it said "through your ignorance." Even though you were seeking for happiness, but you did not know what is the cause of happiness. So the result of what you have done brings you the effect of suffering. "You become entangled in and accumulate," we understand what these mean. Once we create this karma, this latent propensity, there is this force at the time of creation. This type of force is submerged in our consciousness. This type of submerged force in our consciousness could bring about cyclic existence in the future. This is the consciousness of the causal period, the consciousness of the causal period. To explain this in the parameters of the consciousness-only school, we would call it a seed. It would be called the fruitional seed, or the conventional valid cognition seed.

希求解脱 : 因位识 II

如果说你所造的是不善业，为什么呢？因为你不了解一切事情由业感果的这个因果缘起的法则，所以说“此复若愚”。那么你虽然要求乐，可是不了解什么是乐因，所以你造的结果却是苦果。“造作、增长”，这我们都了解了。然后造了这个业以后，这个习气，造的时候它有一种力量，这种力量潜伏在我们的心识当中。这个潜伏在心识当中的力量，将来可以引发生死流转的，这个就是因位识，因位识。在唯识上面我们称它为种子，所谓异熟种子、名言种子之类。
