[1404] A phenomenon having resultant-nature (vipākadhammadhamma) and a phenomenon that is neither resultant nor having resultant-nature (nevavipākanavipākadhammadhamma) — these phenomena (dhammā) — are a condition for a phenomenon having resultant-nature by presence condition (atthi-paccaya): conascent (sahajāta), prenascent (purejāta). Conascent: one aggregate having resultant-nature and the base (vatthu) (are a condition) for the three (aggregates). A phenomenon having resultant-nature and a phenomenon that is neither resultant nor having resultant-nature — these phenomena — are a condition for a phenomenon that is neither resultant nor having resultant-nature by presence condition: conascent, postnascent (pacchājāta), nutriment (āhāra), faculty (indriya). Conascent: aggregates having resultant-nature and the primary elements (mahābhūtā) (are a condition) for mind-originated forms (cittasamuṭṭhāna-rūpa). Postnascent: aggregates having resultant-nature and edible nutriment (kabaḷīkāra āhāra) are a condition for this prenascent body by presence condition. Postnascent: aggregates having resultant-nature and the material life-faculty (rūpa-jīvitindriya) (are a condition) for kamma-produced forms (kaṭattā-rūpa). A resultant phenomenon (vipāko dhammo) … Absence (natthi) and disappearance (vigata) are similar to proximity (anantara); non-disappearance (avigata) is similar to presence.
