Abhidhammapiṭaka · Yamaka (1) · Vol. 38 · Section 40

[40] "Is what is not formations (saṅkhārā) not the aggregate of volitional formations (saṅkhārakkhandha)?" "Yes (āmantā)." "Is what is not the aggregate of volitional formations not formations?" "Setting aside the aggregate of volitional formations, the remaining formations are not the aggregate of volitional formations; they are formations. Setting aside both formations and the aggregate of volitional formations, the rest are neither formations nor the aggregate of volitional formations."
