[32] A root (hetu) phenomenon (dhamma) is a condition for a non-root (na-hetu) phenomenon by dissociation condition (vippayutta-paccaya): conascent (sahajāta), postnascent (pacchājāta). Conascent: the roots are a condition for mind-originated forms (cittasamuṭṭhāna-rūpa) by dissociation condition. At the moment of rebirth-linking (paṭisandhikkhaṇa), the roots are a condition for kamma-born forms (kaṭattā-rūpa) by dissociation condition. The roots are a condition for the base (vatthu) by dissociation condition. Postnascent: the roots are a condition for this prenascent (purejāta) body by dissociation condition. A non-root phenomenon is a condition for a non-root phenomenon by dissociation condition. Conascent, prenascent, postnascent. Conascent: the non-root aggregates (khandhā) are a condition for mind-originated forms by dissociation condition. At the moment of rebirth-linking, the non-root aggregates are a condition for kamma-born forms by dissociation condition. The aggregates are a condition for the base, and the base for the aggregates, by dissociation condition. Prenascent: the eye base (cakkhāyatana) … the body base (kāyāyatana) is a condition for body-consciousness (kāyaviññāṇa); the base is a condition for the non-root aggregates by dissociation condition. Postnascent: the non-root aggregates are a condition for this prenascent body by dissociation condition. A non-root phenomenon is a condition for a root phenomenon by dissociation condition: conascent, prenascent. Conascent: at the moment of rebirth-linking, the base is a condition for the roots by dissociation condition. Prenascent: the base is a condition for the roots by dissociation condition. A non-root phenomenon is a condition for a root phenomenon and a non-root phenomenon by dissociation condition: conascent, prenascent. Conascent: at the moment of rebirth-linking, the base is a condition for the roots and the associated (sampayuttaka) aggregates by dissociation condition. Prenascent: the base is a condition for the roots and the associated aggregates by dissociation condition. A root phenomenon and a non-root phenomenon are a condition for a non-root phenomenon by dissociation condition: conascent, postnascent. Conascent: the roots and the associated aggregates are a condition for mind-originated forms by dissociation condition. At the moment of rebirth-linking, the roots and the associated aggregates are a condition for kamma-born forms by dissociation condition. Postnascent: the roots and the associated aggregates are a condition for this prenascent body by dissociation condition.
