[738] A sense-sphere phenomenon (kāmāvacara dhamma) is a condition, by object condition (ārammaṇa-paccaya), for a sense-sphere phenomenon: Having given a gift, virtue …, the uposatha observance (uposathakamma) …, one reviews things formerly well practiced, relishes them, and delights in them; on account of that, lust (rāga) … grief (domanassa) arises. The noble ones (ariyā) review change-of-lineage (gotrabhū); they review cleansing (vodāna); the defilements (kilesa) abandoned …; the defilements suppressed …; things formerly well practiced …; from jhāna …; the eye …; the base (vatthu) …; the sense-sphere aggregates (khandha) as impermanent (aniccato) … grief arises. The form base (rūpāyatana) is a condition for eye-consciousness (cakkhuviññāṇa); the tangible base (phoṭṭhabbāyatana) … .
A sense-sphere phenomenon is a condition, by object condition, for a not-sense-sphere phenomenon (na-kāmāvacara dhamma): With the divine eye (dibbacakkhu) one sees a form; with the divine ear element (dibbasotadhātu) one hears a sound; with the knowledge that penetrates the minds of others (cetopariyañāṇa) one knows the mind (citta) of one possessed of a sense-sphere mind. The sense-sphere aggregates are a condition, by object condition, for the knowledge of supernormal powers (iddhividha-ñāṇa), 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 their kamma (yathākammūpaga-ñāṇa), and for the knowledge of the future (anāgataṃsa-ñāṇa).
A not-sense-sphere phenomenon is a condition, by object condition, for a not-sense-sphere phenomenon: Nibbāna is a condition, by object condition, for the path (magga) and for the fruition (phala). With the knowledge that penetrates the minds of others one knows the mind of one possessed of a not-sense-sphere mind. The sphere of the infinity of space (ākāsānañcāyatana) is a condition for the sphere of the infinity of consciousness (viññāṇañcāyatana), the sphere of nothingness (ākiñcaññāyatana) for the sphere of neither perception nor non-perception (nevasaññānāsaññāyatana); and the not-sense-sphere aggregates are a condition, by object condition, for the knowledge of supernormal powers, for the knowledge that penetrates the minds of others, for the knowledge of the recollection of past lives, for the knowledge of beings faring according to their kamma, and for the knowledge of the future.
A not-sense-sphere phenomenon is a condition, by object condition, for a sense-sphere phenomenon: Having emerged from jhāna, one reviews the jhāna, relishes it, and delights in it; on account of that, lust arises, view (diṭṭhi) arises. The noble ones, having emerged from the path, review the path; the fruition …; they review Nibbāna. Nibbāna is a condition, by object condition, for change-of-lineage, for cleansing, and for adverting (āvajjana). One reviews the sphere of the infinity of space; one reviews the sphere of the infinity of consciousness; one reviews the sphere of nothingness; one reviews the sphere of neither perception nor non-perception; one reviews the divine eye; one reviews the divine ear element; one reviews the knowledge of supernormal powers; the knowledge that penetrates the minds of others … …; the knowledge of the recollection of past lives …; the knowledge of beings faring according to their kamma …; one reviews the knowledge of the future; the not-sense-sphere aggregates as impermanent … grief arises.
