Cakkhundarīya

Abhidhammapiṭaka · Yamaka (2) · Vol. 39 · Section 1012

[1012] For whichever being the eye-faculty (cakkhundriya) arises, had the ear-faculty (sotindriya) arisen for that being? Yes. Or rather, for whichever being the ear-faculty had arisen, does the eye-faculty arise for that being? For all beings who are passing away and for beings without eye who are being reborn, the ear-faculty had arisen, but the eye-faculty does not arise for them; for beings with eye who are being reborn, both the ear-faculty had arisen and the eye-faculty arises.
