[341] The setting is at Sāvatthī. "Bhikkhus, there are these seven underlying tendencies (anusaya). What seven? The underlying tendency to sensual lust (kāmarāgānusaya), the underlying tendency to aversion (paṭighānusaya), the underlying tendency to views (diṭṭhānusaya), the underlying tendency to doubt (vicikicchānusaya), the underlying tendency to conceit (mānānusaya), the underlying tendency to lust for existence (bhavarāgānusaya), and the underlying tendency to ignorance (avijjānusaya). These, bhikkhus, are the seven underlying tendencies."
