Indeterminate consciousness in the supramundane plane - resultant (Buddhism)
- Indeterminate consciousness in the transcendental plane - resultant
Description
The four kinds of consciousness are linked with the fruition of consciousness associated with four paths: fruition moment - stream entry; fruition moment - once-return; fruition moment - non-return; fruition moment - arahantship.
All four give rise to materiality and to postures but not to intimation.
Context
In Hinayana Buddhism, 89 consciousnesses are enumerated in aggregate (khanda). Of these, 21 are profitable or moral, 12 are unprofitable or immoral and 56 are indeterminate (resultant or functional). The unprofitable all arise in the sphere of sense and desire, whereas profitable and indeterminate arise in sense, fine-material, immaterial and supramundane spheres.
