Synchrony of Relations in Consciousness Not Accompanied By Hetu
There are six mental properties termed particulars (pakiṇṇaka): vitakka (initial application), vicāra (sustained application), adhimokkha (decision), viriya (effort), pīti (pleasurable interest) and chanda (desire-to-do).
Of these, initial application takes part in the relation of jhāna and in the relation of magga.
Sustained application takes part in that of jhāna alone.
Effort takes part in the relation of adhipati, in the relation of indriya, and in the relation of jhāna.
Note 2: There is a mistake of translation here, should be "and in the relation of magga (maggapaccayo).
Note 3: Missing translation for "Pīti jhānapaccayo", which is "Pleasurable interest takes part in the relation of jhāna.
Desire-to-do takes part in the relation of adhipati.
Decision does not take part in any particular relation.
The ten concomitants—the seven universals and initial application, sustained application, and decision from the particulars—obtain in the five classes of consciousness, i.e. turning-towards-the five-doors, the twofold class of acceptance, and the twofold class of investigation accompanied by equanimity.
They form eleven mental states in one combination.
Jhānic function obtains in these five classes of consciousness.
Feeling, unification (ekaggatā), initial application, and sustained application perform the function of jhāna relation.
Consciousness turning towards the five-doors belongs to the inoperative class, and so does not obtain in the relation of vipāka.
Asynchronous kamma serves in place of upanissaya.
So, leaving out jhāna from, and inserting vipāka in,
the relations which have been shown above are not obtainable in the five senses, there are also six unobtainable and eighteen obtainable in the consciousness of
turning-towards the five-doors.
As for the remaining four resultant classes of consciousness, by omitting vipāka, five relations are unobtainable,
and by adding vipāka and jhāna, nineteen are obtainable.
Investigating consciousness accompanied by joy obtains eleven mental concomitants, namely, the above ten together with pleasurable interest. With the consciousness of turning-towards-themind-door, eleven concomitants co-exist, and they are accompanied by effort.
They make up twelve mental states together with the consciousness. Twelve concomitants, i.e. the above ten together with pleasurable interest and effort, co-exist with the consciousness of aesthetic pleasure.
They make up thirteen mental states in combination with the consciousness.
Of the three classes of investigating consciousness, the one accompanied by joy has one more mental property (i.e. pleasurable interest) than the other two, in respect of the jhāna factors; therefore, the unobtainable five and the obtainable nineteen relations are the same as in the two classes of investigating consciousness accompanied by equanimity.
In the consciousness of turning-towards-
the-mind-door, the predominant property is merely effort, which performs the functions of indriya and jhāna,
but not the functions of adhipati and magga.
This consciousness, being of the inoperative class, does not obtain the vipāka relation.
Therefore, the unobtainable six
including vipāka,
and the obtainable eighteen including jhāna, are the same as in the consciousness of turning-towards-the-five-doors.
The relation of vipāka is also not obtained in the consciousness of aesthetic pleasure, since it belongs to the inoperative class. But being of the apperceptive class, it obtains the relation of āsevana.
Therefore, five relations including vipāka are not obtainable, and nineteen relations including āsevana are obtainable.
