（1） Temperament， disposition， tendency， inclination. （2） Bad tendency， evil inclination. Especially refers to evil inclinations lying within one's mind which do not manifest in one's present behavior. （3） The dormant， or latent capacity of afflictions （烦悩）. The latent or dormant condition of defilements， esp. as contrasted with their active， or manifest condition: 现行， 缠. （4） A synonym for defilement or affliction. （5） In the later writings of the Sarva^stiva^da school 说一切有部， the term was defined with the three meanings of 随增 （increasing in strength）， 随逐 （concomitant with marks） and 随缚 （binding）. They furthermore gave a number of lists of defilements， such as "six defilements，" "seven defilements，" etc. （anu/saya） （6） In Yoga^ca^ra theory the term refers to the afflictions that lie dormant in the a^laya-vijn~a^na 阿赖耶识 in the form of seeds 种子 or debilitating afflictions 粗重. The defilements in their state of dormancy， as opposed to when they are in the state of manifest activity → 现行. Practitioners who experience a feeling of purity and enhanced awareness are often self-deceived into thinking they have eliminated their bad habits， and are unaware that many still lie hidden in the a^laya consciousness.［二障义、 HPC 1.793a］
