[141] Seventeen elements (dhātu) are not clingings (nupādānā); the dhamma element (dhammadhātu) may be a clinging (upādāna), may be not a clinging. Sixteen elements are subject to clinging (upādāniya); two elements may be subject to clinging, may be not subject to clinging (anupādāniya). Sixteen elements are dissociated from clinging (upādāna-vippayutta); two elements may be associated with clinging (upādāna-sampayutta), may be dissociated from clinging. Sixteen elements should not be said to be "both clingings and subject to clinging"; they are subject to clinging but not clingings. The mind-consciousness element (manoviññāṇadhātu) should not be said to be "both a clinging and subject to clinging"; it may be subject to clinging but not a clinging; it may be such that it should not be said to be "subject to clinging but not a clinging." The dhamma element may be both a clinging and subject to clinging; may be subject to clinging but not a clinging; may be such that it should not be said either to be "both a clinging and subject to clinging" or to be "subject to clinging but not a clinging." Sixteen elements should not be said either to be "both clingings and associated with clinging" or to be "associated with clinging but not clingings." The mind-consciousness element should not be said to be "both a clinging and associated with clinging"; it may be associated with clinging but not a clinging; it may be such that it should not be said to be "associated with clinging but not a clinging." The dhamma element may be both a clinging and associated with clinging; may be associated with clinging but not a clinging; may be such that it should not be said either to be "both a clinging and associated with clinging" or to be "associated with clinging but not a clinging." Sixteen elements are dissociated from clinging and subject to clinging (upādāna-vippayutta-upādāniya); two elements may be dissociated from clinging and subject to clinging, may be dissociated from clinging and not subject to clinging (upādāna-vippayutta-anupādāniya), may be such that they should not be said either to be "dissociated from clinging and subject to clinging" or to be "dissociated from clinging and not subject to clinging."
