Collective and individual give rise to each other.

Contemplation: Seeds
After reviewing the guidelines for practice, take the following as your object of contemplation:
Thich Nhat Hanh, Transformation at the Base, p. 11

Store consciousness contains all phenomena in the cosmos,
Both conditioned and unconditioned,
In the form of seeds.
