[1678] P. (Paravādin): Should it not be said that form (rūpa) is a result (vipāka)? S. (Sakavādin): Yes. P.: Are not the phenomena (dhammā) that are mind (citta) and mental factors (cetasika), which have arisen because kamma has been done, a result? S.: Yes. P.: If the phenomena that are mind and mental factors, which have arisen because kamma has been done, are a result, then indeed, sir, it must be said that form which has arisen because kamma has been done is a result. The Discussion "Form Is a Result" (Rūpaṃ vipākoti kathā). ______________________ The Discussion "Form Belongs to the Form Sphere and the Formless Sphere" (Rūpaṃ rūpāvacarārūpāvacaranti kathā)
