This is the sequence of the arising of form here. Division of Nibbāna 62. Nibbāna, however, called the supramundane, is to be realized by the knowledge of the four paths. It is the object of the paths and fruits. It is called Nibbāna because it is free from craving, which is called 'vāna' (weaving, entanglement). 63. This, though one in essence, becomes twofold by way of cause and classification: the Nibbāna-element with remainder of clinging, and the Nibbāna-element without remainder of clinging. 64. Likewise, it becomes threefold by way of aspect: void, signless, and unconditioned. 65. The changeless, ultimate state, Unconditioned, unsurpassed. Nibbāna, say the great sages, Who are free from 'vāna'. Thus, consciousness, mental factors, Form, and Nibbāna too; The Tathāgatas declare As the four ultimate realities. Thus ends the sixth chapter Called the Section on the Compendium of Form In the Abhidhammatthasaṅgaha. 7. Chapter on Compendiums 1. Seventy-two kinds are declared Of ultimate realities with their characteristics. Now, I shall explain their compendium As is appropriate. 2. The Compendium of Unwholesome Things, the Mixed Compendium, the Compendium of Factors of Enlightenment, and the General Compendium—these are the Compendiums. Should be known as fourfold. Compendium of the Unwholesome 3. How? In the compendium of the unwholesome, first, four taints: taint of sensual desire, taint of becoming, taint of views, taint of ignorance. 4. Four floods: flood of sensual desire, flood of becoming, flood of views, flood of ignorance. 5. Four yokes: yoke of sensual desire, yoke of becoming, yoke of views, yoke of ignorance. 6. Four bodily ties: bodily tie of covetousness, bodily tie of ill-will, bodily tie of clinging to rites and rituals, bodily tie of dogmatic adherence to "this is the truth". 7. Four clingings: clinging to sensual desire, clinging to views, clinging to rites and rituals, clinging to a doctrine of self. 8. Six hindrances: hindrance of sensual desire, hindrance of ill-will, hindrance of sloth and torpor, hindrance of restlessness and remorse, hindrance of doubt, hindrance of ignorance. 9. Seven latent tendencies: latent tendency of sensual lust, latent tendency of lust for becoming, latent tendency of aversion, latent tendency of conceit, latent tendency of views, latent tendency of doubt, latent tendency of ignorance. 10. Ten fetters: fetter of sensual lust, fetter of lust for form, fetter of lust for the formless, fetter of aversion, fetter of conceit, fetter of views, fetter of clinging to rites and rituals, fetter of doubt, fetter of restlessness, fetter of ignorance, in the Suttanta. 11. Also another ten fetters: fetter of sensual lust, fetter of lust for becoming, fetter of aversion, fetter of conceit, fetter of views, fetter of clinging to rites and rituals, fetter of doubt, fetter of envy, fetter of avarice, fetter of ignorance, in the Abhidhamma (Vibhanga 969). 12. Ten defilements: greed, hatred, delusion, conceit, wrong views, doubt, sloth, restlessness, shamelessness, lack of moral dread. 13. Here, among the taints and so forth, by the name of sensual desire and becoming, the craving based on them is intended; and clinging to rites and rituals, dogmatic adherence to "this is the truth", and clinging to a doctrine of self, are said to be merely views that have thus arisen. 14. Taints and floods and yokes, And three ties in reality; Two clingings are said, There would be eight hindrances. There are just six latent tendencies, nine fetters are considered; Ten defilements. This is said, the ninefold collection of evil. Mixed Collection 15. In the Mixed Collection, six roots: greed, hatred, delusion, non-greed, non-hatred, non-delusion. 16. Seven jhāna factors: initial application, sustained application, rapture, one-pointedness, joy, displeasure, equanimity. 17. Twelve path factors: right view, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right concentration, wrong view, wrong intention, wrong effort, wrong concentration. 18. Twenty-two faculties: eye faculty, ear faculty, nose faculty, tongue faculty, body faculty, female faculty, male faculty, life faculty, mind faculty, pleasure faculty, pain faculty, joy faculty, displeasure faculty, equanimity faculty, faith faculty, energy faculty, mindfulness faculty, concentration faculty, wisdom faculty, the faculty of "I shall know the unknown," the faculty of knowing, the faculty of one who has known. 19. Nine powers: power of faith, power of energy, power of mindfulness, power of concentration, power of wisdom, power of moral shame, power of moral dread, power of shamelessness, power of fearlessness (of wrong). 20. Four dominants: dominant of desire-to-act, dominant of energy, dominant of consciousness, dominant of investigation. 21. Four nutriments: physical food, contact is the second, mental volition is the third, consciousness is the fourth. 22. Among the faculties here, the knowledge of the stream-entry path is the faculty of "I shall know the unknown." 23. The knowledge of Arahantship's fruit is the faculty of one who has known. 24. The six knowledges in between are called the faculty of knowing. 25. And the life faculty is twofold, as material and immaterial. 26. In the five sense-consciousnesses, jhāna factors are not found. In those without energy, powers are not found. In those without roots, path factors are not found. 27. Likewise, in the mind of doubt, one-pointedness does not attain the state of path faculty or power. 28. In the impulsion moments with two or three roots, only one dominant is found, as is possible. 29. Six roots, five jhāna factors, nine path factors in reality. Sixteen faculty qualities, and nine power qualities are declared. Four dominants are stated, and so are the nutriments. sevenfold. Mixed collection is said, interspersed with wholesome and so on. Collection of Factors of Enlightenment 30. In the collection of Factors of Enlightenment: the four foundations of mindfulness are mindfulness of the body, mindfulness of feelings, mindfulness of consciousness, mindfulness of mental qualities. 31. The four right efforts are: the effort to abandon unwholesome states that have arisen, the effort to prevent unwholesome states from arising, the effort to arouse wholesome states that have not arisen, the effort to increase wholesome states that have arisen. 32. The four bases of psychic power are: the base of psychic power of desire, the base of psychic power of energy, the base of psychic power of consciousness, the base of psychic power of investigation. 33. The five faculties are: the faculty of faith, the faculty of energy, the faculty of mindfulness, the faculty of concentration, the faculty of wisdom. 34. The five powers are: the power of faith, the power of energy, the power of mindfulness, the power of concentration, the power of wisdom. 35. The seven factors of enlightenment are: the mindfulness factor of enlightenment, the investigation of states factor of enlightenment, the energy factor of enlightenment, the rapture factor of enlightenment, the tranquility factor of enlightenment, the concentration factor of enlightenment, the equanimity factor of enlightenment. 36. The eight path factors are: right view, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right concentration. 37. Here, however, "the four foundations of mindfulness" is said to be just one, right mindfulness. 38. Likewise, "the four right efforts" is right effort. 39. Desire, consciousness, and equanimity, faith, tranquility, and rapture, right view and intention, effort, the three abstinences, right mindfulness, concentration— these fourteen are by nature; in thirty-seven kinds, their collection is sevenfold. 40. Intention, tranquility, and rapture, desire and consciousness, and the three abstinences— nine in one place; energy, nine or eight; mindfulness, concentration, four or five; wisdom, faith, two places—this is the supreme division of the thirty-seven excellent states. 41. All are supramundane, or not, intention and rapture. Also mundane, as appropriate, in the practice of the six purifications. General Collection 42. In the general collection, five the aggregates – the aggregate of form, the aggregate of feeling, the aggregate of perception, the aggregate of mental formations, the aggregate of consciousness. 43. The five aggregates of clinging – the aggregate of clinging to form, the aggregate of clinging to feeling, the aggregate of clinging to perception, the aggregate of clinging to mental formations, the aggregate of clinging to consciousness. 44. The twelve sense bases – the eye base, the ear base, the nose base, the tongue base, the body base, the mind base, the form base, the sound base, the smell base, the taste base, the tangible base, the mental object base. 45. The eighteen elements – the eye element, the ear element, the nose element, the tongue element, the body element, the form element, the sound element, the smell element, the taste element, the tangible element, the eye-consciousness element, the ear-consciousness element, the nose-consciousness element, the tongue-consciousness element, the body-consciousness element, the mind element, the mental object element, the mind-consciousness element. 46. The four noble truths – the noble truth of suffering, the noble truth of the origin of suffering, the noble truth of the cessation of suffering, the noble truth of the path leading to the cessation of suffering. 47. Herein, sixty-nine phenomena, namely mental factors, subtle material form, and Nibbāna, are counted as the mental object base and the mental object element. 48. The mind base itself is divided into seven consciousness elements. 49. Form, feeling, perception, the remaining mental factors, and consciousness – these five are spoken of
