[101] A phenomenon (dhamma) that is a mental factor (cetasika) is a condition for a phenomenon that is a mental factor by predominance condition (adhipati-paccaya): object-predominance (ārammaṇādhipati) and conascence-predominance (sahajātādhipati). Object-predominance: having given weight to aggregates (khandhā) that are mental factors, aggregates that are mental factors arise. Conascence-predominance: predominance (adhipati) that is a mental factor is a condition for the associated aggregates by predominance condition. The root (question) should be asked. Object-predominance: having given weight to aggregates that are mental factors, mind (citta) arises. Conascence-predominance: predominance that is a mental factor is a condition for mind and for mind-originated forms (cittasamuṭṭhāna-rūpa) by predominance condition. The root (question) should be asked. Object-predominance: having given weight to aggregates that are mental factors, aggregates that are mental factors and mind arise. Conascence-predominance: predominance that is a mental factor is a condition for the associated aggregates, for mind, and for mind-originated forms by predominance condition. A phenomenon that is not a mental factor (acetasika) is a condition for a phenomenon that is not a mental factor by predominance condition: object-predominance and conascence-predominance. Object-predominance: the noble ones (ariyā), having given weight to Nibbāna, review it. Nibbāna is a condition for change-of-lineage (gotrabhū), for purification (vodāna), for the path (magga), and for fruition (phala) by predominance condition. The eye … the base (vatthu) … having given weight to aggregates that are not mental factors, one relishes and delights in them; having given weight to that, mind arises. Conascence-predominance: predominance that is not a mental factor is a condition for mind and for mind-originated forms by predominance condition. A phenomenon that is not a mental factor is a condition for a phenomenon that is a mental factor by predominance condition: object-predominance and conascence-predominance. Object-predominance: the noble ones, having given weight to Nibbāna, … — similar to the first round (paṭhamagamana). The eye … the base … having given weight to aggregates that are not mental factors, one relishes and delights in them; having given weight to that, lust (rāga) arises, view (diṭṭhi) arises … Conascence-predominance: predominance that is not a mental factor is a condition for the associated aggregates by predominance condition. A phenomenon that is not a mental factor is a condition for a phenomenon that is a mental factor and for a phenomenon that is not a mental factor by predominance condition: object-predominance and conascence-predominance. Object-predominance: the noble ones, Nibbāna … — the first round. Having given weight to aggregates that are not mental factors, one relishes and delights in them; having given weight to that, aggregates that are mental factors and mind arise. Conascence-predominance: predominance that is not a mental factor is a condition for the associated aggregates and for mind-originated forms by predominance condition. A phenomenon that is a mental factor and a phenomenon that is not a mental factor are a condition for a phenomenon that is a mental factor by predominance condition: object-predominance. Three (questions). Object-predominance only.
