[1270] Where the latent tendency of doubt (vicikicchānusaya) does not lie latent, does the latent tendency of lust for existence (bhavarāgānusaya) not lie latent there? Yes. Or rather, where the latent tendency of lust for existence does not lie latent, does the latent tendency of doubt not lie latent there? In the three feelings (vedanā) in the sense-sphere element (kāmadhātu): here the latent tendency of lust for existence does not lie latent, but it is not the case that the latent tendency of doubt does not lie latent there. In the unincluded (apariyāpanna): here the latent tendency of lust for existence does not lie latent and the latent tendency of doubt does not lie latent. Where the latent tendency of doubt does not lie latent, does the latent tendency of ignorance (avijjānusaya) not lie latent there? Yes. Or rather, where the latent tendency of ignorance does not lie latent, does the latent tendency of doubt not lie latent there? Yes.
