The root [question is to be supplied] (mūlaṃ): volition of the immaterial sphere is a condition for the associated (sampayuttaka) aggregates and for mind-originated forms by kamma condition. A phenomenon not of the immaterial sphere is a condition for a phenomenon not of the immaterial sphere by kamma condition: conascent [kamma] and asynchronous [kamma]. Conascent: volition not of the immaterial sphere is a condition for the associated aggregates by kamma condition. Abbreviated (saṅkhittaṃ).
