[1237] Where the latent tendency of doubt (vicikicchānusaya) lies latent, does the latent tendency of lust for existence (bhavarāgānusaya) lie latent there? In the three feelings (vedanā) in the sense-sphere element (kāmadhātu) — here the latent tendency of doubt lies latent, but the latent tendency of lust for existence does not lie latent there. In the form element (rūpadhātu) and in the formless element (arūpadhātu) — here the latent tendency of doubt lies latent, and the latent tendency of lust for existence also lies latent. Or rather, where the latent tendency of lust for existence lies latent, does the latent tendency of doubt lie latent there? Yes. Where the latent tendency of doubt lies latent, does the latent tendency of ignorance (avijjānusaya) lie latent there? Yes. Or rather, where the latent tendency of ignorance lies latent, does the latent tendency of doubt lie latent there? Yes.
