Upādinnattika

Abhidhammapiṭaka · Paṭṭhāna (1) · Vol. 40 · Section 1489

[1489] A phenomenon (dhamma) that is clung to and subject to clinging (upādinnupādāniya) is a condition, by predominance condition (adhipati-paccaya), for a phenomenon that is not clung to but subject to clinging (anupādinnupādāniya). [There is one kind:] object-predominance (ārammaṇādhipati): having given weight to the eye, one relishes it, delights in it; having given weight to that, lust (rāga) arises, view (diṭṭhi) arises. The ear … the nose, the tongue, the body … forms that are clung to and subject to clinging … odours, tastes, tangibles, the base (vatthu) … having given weight to aggregates that are clung to and subject to clinging, one relishes them, delights in them; having given weight to that, lust arises, view arises. A phenomenon that is not clung to but subject to clinging is a condition, by predominance condition, for a phenomenon that is not clung to but subject to clinging. [There are two kinds:] object-predominance and conascence-predominance (sahajātādhipati). Object-predominance: having given a gift, having undertaken virtue, having performed the uposatha observance, one gives weight to that and reviews it; one gives weight to what was formerly well practised and reviews it; having emerged from jhāna, one gives weight to the jhāna and reviews it. Trainees (sekkhā) give weight to change-of-lineage (gotrabhū) and review it; they give weight to cleansing (vodāna) and review it. Forms that are not clung to but subject to clinging … sounds, odours, tastes, tangibles … having given weight to aggregates that are not clung to but subject to clinging, one relishes them, delights in them; having given weight to that, lust arises, view arises. Conascence-predominance: the predominance that is not clung to but subject to clinging is a condition, by predominance condition, for the associated aggregates and for forms originated by mind (cittasamuṭṭhāna-rūpa).
