Thank you, Gad and Dr.Lal! Speaking of Iddhi powers, my understanding is that the javana citta of Brahmas or a human with similar Jhanas can generate significant amount of matter. I believe this is what happens during the (re)formation phase of a chakkavala where uncountable Brahmas generate immense matter via javana citta which involves abhisankhara. Greed and Hate are generally inactive in their minds so is it the raga and moha that involves javana cittas in this case? Also, an arahant/buddha doesn’t have abhisankhara so how do they use iddhi powers?
