Dassanenapahātabbahetukattika

Abhidhammapiṭaka · Paṭṭhāna (2) · Vol. 41 · Section 888

[888] A phenomenon (dhamma) whose root is to be abandoned by development (bhāvanāya-pahātabbahetuka) is a condition for a phenomenon whose root is to be abandoned neither by seeing nor by development (nevadassanena-nabhāvanāya-pahātabbahetuka) … Noble ones (ariyā) review the abandoned defilement (kilesa) whose root is to be abandoned by development, the defilement that has been suppressed … [the defilements] formerly indulged in … [One contemplates] the aggregates (khandhā) whose root is to be abandoned by development as impermanent (aniccato) … [One knows the mind] by the knowledge that penetrates the minds of others (cetopariyañāṇa). The aggregates whose root is to be abandoned by development are a condition for the knowledge that penetrates the minds of others, for the knowledge of the recollection of past lives (pubbenivāsānussati-ñāṇa), for the knowledge of beings' faring according to kamma (yathākammūpaga-ñāṇa), for the knowledge of the future (anāgataṃsa-ñāṇa), for adverting (āvajjanā), and for delusion (moha), by object condition (ārammaṇa-paccaya).
