From access to insight....

your own consciousness, which entered your mother's womb at the time of your conception

Glossary of Buddhism. Vijñāna (Sanskrit) or viññāṇa (Pāli) is translated as "consciousness," "life force," "mind," or "discernment."

Life force = consciousness = soul for some comfortable with those 4 letters.
The Dalai Lama said the embryo does not become life until the consciousness enters it, so he was saying consciousness = life force as well.

It is with a choiceless awareness that doors shall open and one would know a consciousness in which there is no conflict and no time - Krishnamurti
