Setting aside delusion (moha) accompanied by doubt (vicikicchā) and accompanied by restlessness (uddhacca), the remaining unwholesome (akusala); the wholesome (kusala) in the four planes (bhūmi); setting aside the rootless (ahetuka) arisings of mind (cittuppāda) from among the resultants (vipāka) of the sense sphere (kāmāvacara), the resultant in the four planes; setting aside the rootless arisings of mind from among the sense-sphere functional (kiriyā), the functional indeterminate (kiriyābyākata) in the three planes — these phenomena are with roots.
Which phenomena are without roots (ahetukā)?
Delusion accompanied by doubt, delusion accompanied by restlessness, the two sets of fivefold consciousness (pañcaviññāṇa), the three mind elements (manodhātu), the five rootless mind-consciousness elements (manoviññāṇadhātu), and form (rūpa) and Nibbāna — these phenomena are without roots.
