What is nahetu & ahetu ??

Post by DooDoot »

Dear Abhidhamma expert/s

The text below includes the terms "nahetupaccayā" & "ahetukapaṭisandhikkhaṇe"
Not-root 3
Pts-s 6 Dependent on state with past object, arises state with past object by not-root condition (nahetupaccayā).

Dependent on one rootless aggregate with past object, arise three aggregates … two aggregates …

At the moment of rootless conception (ahetukapaṭisandhikkhaṇe)…

Dependent on doubt-accompanied or restlessness-accompanied aggregates, arises doubt-accompanied or restlessness-accompanied delusion. (1)

What is meant here by "nahetupaccayā" ("without casual condition)?

Thank you :thanks:
There is always an official executioner. If you try to take his place, It is like trying to be a master carpenter and cutting wood. If you try to cut wood like a master carpenter, you will only hurt your hand.
