Upādinnattika

Abhidhammapiṭaka · Paṭṭhāna (1) · Vol. 40 · Section 1533

[1533] A phenomenon (dhamma) that is not-clung-to but subject to clinging (anupādinnupādāniya) is a condition, by prenascence condition (purejāta-paccaya), for a phenomenon that is clung-to and subject to clinging (upādinnupādāniya). Object-prenascence (ārammaṇapurejāta): one contemplates with insight forms that are not-clung-to but subject to clinging … … sounds … odours … tastes … tangibles — as impermanent, as suffering (dukkha), as not-self; one relishes them, one delights in them. With that as object, lust (rāga) arises, grief (domanassa) arises. When the wholesome and the unwholesome have ceased, the resultant (vipāka) arises as registration (tadārammaṇatā). The form base (rūpāyatana) that is not-clung-to but subject to clinging is a condition, by prenascence condition, for eye-consciousness (cakkhuviññāṇa), the tangible base (phoṭṭhabbāyatana) for body-consciousness (kāyaviññāṇa).
