Eye-consciousness, ear-consciousness, nose-consciousness, tongue- consciousness, body-consciousness, mind-consciousness. Thus, in many ways, is the aggregate of consciousness. This is called the aggregate of consciousness. Abhidhamma Analysis. 3. Section on Questions 150. The five aggregates – the aggregate of form, the aggregate of feeling, the aggregate of perception, the aggregate of mental formations, the aggregate of consciousness. 151. Of the five aggregates, how many are wholesome, how many are unwholesome, how many are indeterminate…and so on…how many are with support, how many are without support? 1. Triad 152. The aggregate of form is indeterminate. The four aggregates may be wholesome, may be unwholesome, may be indeterminate. Two aggregates are not to be said as "associated with pleasant feeling," or "associated with painful feeling," or "associated with neither-painful-nor-pleasant feeling." Three aggregates may be associated with pleasant feeling, may be associated with painful feeling, may be associated with neither-painful-nor-pleasant feeling. The aggregate of form is neither a result nor having the nature of a result. The four aggregates may be results, may be having the nature of results, may be neither results nor having the nature of results. The aggregate of form may be grasped and graspable, may be ungrasped but graspable. The four aggregates may be grasped and graspable, may be ungrasped but graspable, may be ungrasped and ungraspable. The aggregate of form is undefiled but defiling. The four aggregates may be defiled and defiling, may be undefiled but defiling, may be undefiled and undefiling. The aggregate of form is without initial application and without sustained application. Three aggregates may be with initial application and with sustained application, may be without initial application but with sustained application, may be without initial application and without sustained application. The aggregate of mental formations may be with initial application and with sustained application, may be without initial application but with sustained application, may be without initial application and without sustained application, or may not be said as "with initial application and with sustained application," or "without initial application but with sustained application," or "without initial application and without sustained application." The aggregate of form is not to be said as "accompanied by joy," or "accompanied by pleasure," or "accompanied by equanimity." The aggregate of feeling may be accompanied by joy, not accompanied by pleasure, n one accompanied by equanimity, may not be said to be "accompanied by joy." Three aggregates may be accompanied by joy, may be accompanied by pleasure, may be accompanied by equanimity, may not be said to be "accompanied by joy," or "accompanied by pleasure," or "accompanied by equanimity." The aggregate of form is to be abandoned neither by seeing nor by development. Four aggregates may be abandoned by seeing, may be abandoned by development, may be abandoned neither by seeing nor by development. The aggregate of form has a cause for abandonment neither by seeing nor by development. Four aggregates may have a cause for abandonment by seeing, may have a cause for abandonment by development, may have a cause for abandonment neither by seeing nor by development. The aggregate of form neither leads to accumulation nor to diminution. Four aggregates may lead to accumulation, may lead to diminution, may neither lead to accumulation nor to diminution. The aggregate of form is neither trainee nor adept. Four aggregates may be trainees, may be adepts, may be neither trainees nor adepts. The aggregate of form is limited. Four aggregates may be limited, may be exalted, may be immeasurable. The aggregate of form is without object. Four aggregates may have limited objects, may have exalted objects, may have immeasurable objects, may not be said to have "limited objects," or "exalted objects," or "immeasurable objects." The aggregate of form is medium. Four aggregates may be inferior, may be medium, may be superior. The aggregate of form is indeterminate. Four aggregates may be fixed in wrongness, may be fixed in rightness, may be indeterminate. The aggregate of form is without object. Four aggregates may have the path as object, may have the path as cause, may have the path as dominant, may not be said to have "the path as object," or "the path as cause," or "the path as dominant;" may be arisen, may be unarisen, may be arising; may be past, may be future, may be present. The aggregate of form is without object. Four aggregates may have past objects, may be having future objects, sometimes having present objects, sometimes not to be said: "having past objects" or "having future objects" or "having present objects"; sometimes internal, sometimes external, sometimes internal and external. The form aggregate is without object. The four aggregates sometimes have internal objects, sometimes have external objects, sometimes have internal and external objects, sometimes not to be said: "having internal objects" or "having external objects" or "having internal and external objects." The four aggregates are invisible and non-impinging. The form aggregate is sometimes visible and impinging, sometimes invisible and impinging, sometimes invisible and non-impinging. 2. Dyad 153. The four aggregates are not roots. The volitional formations aggregate is sometimes a root, sometimes not a root. The form aggregate is rootless. The four aggregates are sometimes with roots, sometimes rootless. The form aggregate is dissociated from roots. The four aggregates are sometimes associated with roots, sometimes dissociated from roots. The form aggregate is not to be said: "both a root and with roots" or "with roots and not a root." The three aggregates are not to be said: "both roots and with roots," sometimes with roots and not roots, sometimes not to be said: "with roots and not roots." The volitional formations aggregate is sometimes both a root and with roots, sometimes with roots and not a root, sometimes not to be said: "both a root and with roots" or "with roots and not a root." The form aggregate is not to be said: "both a root and associated with roots" or "associated with roots and not a root." The three aggregates are not to be said: "both roots and associated with roots," sometimes associated with roots and not roots, sometimes not to be said: "associated with roots and not roots." The volitional formations aggregate is sometimes both a root and associated with roots, sometimes associated with roots and not a root, sometimes not to be said: "both a root and associated with roots" or "associated with roots and not a root." also. The form aggregate is not a root, it is rootless. Three aggregates may or may not be roots, they are with roots; may or may not be roots, they are rootless. The volitional formations aggregate may or may not be a root, it is with roots; may or may not be a root, it is rootless; may not be spoken of as "it is with roots, not a root" nor as "it is rootless, not a root." With conditions, conditioned. Four aggregates are invisible. The form aggregate may be visible, may be invisible. Four aggregates are without impact. The form aggregate may be with impact, may be without impact. The form aggregate is form. Four aggregates are formless. The form aggregate is mundane. Four aggregates may be mundane, may be supramundane; are knowable by some, not knowable by some. Four aggregates are not defilements. The volitional formations aggregate may be a defilement, may not be a defilement. The form aggregate is with defilements. Four aggregates may be with defilements, may be without defilements. The form aggregate is dissociated from defilements. Four aggregates may be associated with defilements, may be dissociated from defilements. The form aggregate is not to be spoken of as "it is a defilement and with defilements," it is with defilements and not a defilement. Three aggregates are not to be spoken of as "they are defilements and with defilements," they may be with defilements and not defilements, they may not be spoken of as "they are with defilements and not defilements." The volitional formations aggregate may be a defilement and with defilements, may be with defilements and not a defilement, may not be spoken of as "it is a defilement and with defilements" nor as "it is with defilements and not a defilement." The form aggregate is not to be spoken of as "it is a defilement and associated with defilements" nor as "it is associated with defilements and not a defilement." Three aggregates are not to be spoken of as "they are defilements and associated with defilements," they may be associated with defilements and not defilements, they may not be spoken of as "they are associated with defilements and not defilements." The volitional formations aggregate may be a defilement and associated with defilements, may be associated with defilements and not a defilement, may not be spoken of as "it is a defilement and associated with defilements" nor as "it is associated with defilements and not a defilement." Also. The form aggregate is defilement-free but defiled. The four aggregates may be defilement-free but defiled,
