[490] A phenomenon (dhamma) accompanied by rapture (pītisahagata) is a condition (paccaya) for a phenomenon accompanied by rapture and accompanied by pleasure (sukhasahagata) by way of object condition (ārammaṇa-paccaya). With a mind (citta) accompanied by rapture, having given a gift (dāna), virtue (sīla) … having performed the uposatha observance (uposathakamma), one reviews that with a mind accompanied by rapture and accompanied by pleasure. Having emerged from jhāna accompanied by rapture, having emerged from the path (magga), having emerged from fruition (phala), one reviews that with a mind accompanied by rapture and accompanied by pleasure. The noble ones (ariyā), with a mind accompanied by rapture and accompanied by pleasure, review the abandoned defilement (kilesa) accompanied by rapture; they review the suppressed defilement; they know the defilements formerly habitually indulged in. With a mind accompanied by rapture and accompanied by pleasure they see with insight the aggregates (khandhā) accompanied by rapture as impermanent (anicca), as suffering (dukkha), as not-self (anattā); they relish them, they delight in them. Taking that as object, lust (rāga) accompanied by rapture and accompanied by pleasure arises; view (diṭṭhi) arises. Taking the aggregates accompanied by rapture as object, aggregates accompanied by rapture and accompanied by pleasure arise.
