[370] Which phenomena (dhammā) are wholesome?
On the occasion when one develops supramundane jhāna (lokuttara jhāna) — leading out (niyyānika), tending to the dispersal of the round (apacayagāmī), for the abandoning of wrong views (diṭṭhigata), for the attainment of the first plane (bhūmi) — and, quite secluded from sensual pleasures (kāmā), … enters upon and dwells in the first jhāna, which is of painful practice and sluggish direct knowledge (dukkhāpaṭipadaṃ dandhābhiññaṃ): on that occasion, with wholesome root (kusalamūla) as condition, there is volitional formation (saṅkhāra); with volitional formation as condition, consciousness (viññāṇa); with consciousness as condition, name (nāma); with name as condition, the sixth sense base (chaṭṭhāyatana); with the sixth sense base as condition, contact (phassa); with contact as condition, feeling (vedanā); with feeling as condition, confidence (pasāda); with confidence as condition, resolution (adhimokkha); with resolution as condition, existence (bhava); with existence as condition, birth (jāti); with birth as condition, aging and death (jarāmaraṇa). Thus is the origin (samudaya) of these phenomena.
