¹ [Editorial note in the Siam Raṭṭha edition:] Only this much appears in the Pali text. The answer should stand complete thus: "In the form element and the formless element: from there one has the latent tendency of lust for existence, the latent tendency of conceit, the latent tendency of view, and the latent tendency of doubt, but one does not from there have the latent tendency of sensual lust or the latent tendency of repulsion."
