[1545] Where the latent tendency (anusaya) to lust for existence (bhavarāgānusaya) is not abandoned, is the latent tendency to ignorance (avijjānusaya) not abandoned there? Yes. Or rather, where the latent tendency to ignorance is not abandoned, is the latent tendency to lust for existence not abandoned there? In the three feelings (vedanā) in the sense-sphere element (kāmadhātu): here the latent tendency to ignorance is not abandoned, but the latent tendency to lust for existence should not be said to be either "abandoned" or "not abandoned." In the form element (rūpadhātu) and in the formless element (arūpadhātu): here both the latent tendency to ignorance is not abandoned and the latent tendency to lust for existence is not abandoned.
