I revised #1 of the new post “Purāna and Nava Kamma – Sequence of Kamma Generation” as follows:
1. Kamma accumulation happens in two distinctive stages.
- In the first stage, the mind of a puthujjana attaches automatically to sensory input ( ārammaṇa) based on the “distorted saññā” we discussed in recent posts. That attachment is due to “saññā vipallāsa.” Thus, “saññā vipallāsa” arises ONLY IF “fooled by the distorted saññā”; see “Fooled by Distorted Saññā (Sañjānāti) – Origin of Attachment (Taṇhā).”
P.S. Comprehension of ” distorted saññā” and “saññā vipallāsa” plays a significant role in cultivating “yathābhūta ñāna.”
- See “Bhūta and Yathābhūta – What Do They Really Mean.” (I just added a bullet point to the end of this post.)
