Upādinnattika

Abhidhammapiṭaka · Paṭṭhāna (1) · Vol. 40 · Section 1486

[1486] A phenomenon (dhamma) that is not clung-to but subject to clinging (anupādinnupādāniya) is a condition, by object condition (ārammaṇa-paccaya), for a phenomenon that is clung-to and subject to clinging (upādinnupādāniya). Trainees (sekkhā) or ordinary persons (puthujjanā) contemplate with insight forms that are not clung-to but subject to clinging … sounds, odours, tastes, tangibles … aggregates that are not clung-to but subject to clinging, as impermanent, as suffering (dukkha), as not-self; they relish them and delight in them. With that as basis, lust (rāga) arises, grief arises. When the wholesome and the unwholesome have ceased, the resultant (vipāka) arises as registration (tadārammaṇatā). The wholesome [state] of the sphere of infinity of space (ākāsānañcāyatana) is a condition, by object condition, for the resultant of the sphere of infinity of consciousness (viññāṇañcāyatana). The wholesome [state] of the sphere of nothingness (ākiñcaññāyatana) is a condition, by object condition, for the resultant of the sphere of neither perception nor non-perception (nevasaññānāsaññāyatana). The form base (rūpāyatana) that is not clung-to but subject to clinging is a condition for eye-consciousness (cakkhu-viññāṇa), and the tangible-object base (phoṭṭhabbāyatana) for body-consciousness (kāya-viññāṇa), by object condition.
