[899] Which phenomena (dhammā) are visible and impinging (sanidassana-sappaṭigha)? The form base (rūpāyatana) — these phenomena are visible and impinging. Which phenomena are invisible but impinging (anidassana-sappaṭigha)? The eye base (cakkhāyatana) … the tangible-object base (phoṭṭhabbāyatana) — these phenomena are invisible but impinging. Which phenomena are invisible and non-impinging (anidassana-appaṭigha)? The wholesome (kusala) in the four planes (bhūmi); the unwholesome (akusala); the resultant (vipāka) in the four planes; the functional indeterminate (kiriyā-abyākata) in the three planes; and that form, invisible and non-impinging, which is included in the dhamma base (dhammāyatana); and Nibbāna — these phenomena are invisible and non-impinging.
