[940] Which phenomena (dhammā) are both misapprehensions (parāmāsa) and subject to misapprehension (parāmaṭṭha)? That very misapprehension is both a misapprehension and subject to misapprehension. Which phenomena are subject to misapprehension but not misapprehensions? Except for misapprehension, the remaining unwholesome (akusala); the wholesome (kusala) in the three planes (bhūmi); the resultant (vipāka) in the three planes; the functional indeterminate (kiriyā-abyākata) in the three planes; and all form (rūpa) — these phenomena are subject to misapprehension but not misapprehensions. Phenomena not subject to misapprehension (aparāmaṭṭha) cannot be said either to be 'both misapprehensions and subject to misapprehension' or to be 'subject to misapprehension but not misapprehensions.'
