[1184] For whomever the bodily formation (kāyasaṅkhāra) does not arise, does the mental formation (cittasaṅkhāra) of that one not cease?
For all [beings], at the moment of the dissolution (bhaṅgakkhaṇa) of mind (citta), their bodily formation does not arise, yet it is not the case that their mental formation does not cease. At the moment of the arising (uppādakkhaṇa) of mind without in-and-out breaths (assāsa-passāsā), for those who have attained cessation (nirodhasamāpanna), and for non-percipient beings (asaññasatta), their bodily formation does not arise and their mental formation does not cease.
Or, for whomever the mental formation does not cease, does the bodily formation not arise for that one?
At the moment of the arising of in-and-out breaths, their mental formation does not cease, yet it is not the case that their bodily formation does not arise. At the moment of the arising of mind without in-and-out breaths, for those who have attained cessation, and for non-percipient beings, their mental formation does not cease and their bodily formation does not arise.
