I. CONSCIOUSNESS AND ITS FACTORS Mental Factors-Cetasikas Along with the cittas (consciousnesses) there arise cetasikas. All mental states, mental actions, factors and mental phenomena are referred to as “cetasikas”. Cetasikas always occur spontaneously, arising together with the cittas. A cetasika is defined as a mental factor that arises together with a citta and then ceases the moment the citta ceases. Without an object no citta can arise. This is also true of a mental factor, since it always shares the same sense object as that of its related citta. Whenever any citta arises at least seven mental factors also arise. This occurrence of mental factors is dependent upon the object, the individual and the particular realm that the being inhabits. A cetasika cannot arise without citta, nor can citta arise without a cetasika; they are totally interdependent. At the moment of cognition citta and cetasika operate together. Cetasikas can be regarded as being mental properties. Citta itself is invisible; hence, one can perceive only the effect of citta, i.e. the cittasika. Citta always manifests according to the associated cetasika. For example, when anger arises it shows itself as the mental state of anger. In this case, the latter is the cetasika and the former is the citta. The arising of a particular consciousness and its related mental factor coincide. This interrelationship is best demonstrated by the following example. When clean, clear water is mixed with blue dye the only thing visible is blue coloured water. In the same way, depending upon which citta is present a state of mind or cetasika arises. However, it is citta that is chief. Its predominance can be illustrated by the following example. When it is announced, “The king is coming”, the king does arrive in due course but he is not alone, he is accompanied by his retinue. Similarly, whenever consciousness or citta arises it does not do so alone; it is always accompanied by its respective cetasikas or mental factors. Citta and cetasikas always arise together, with the appropriate sense object and sense base. So, to conclude, we may say that every citta arises in conjunction with its respective cetasikas. They share the same sense object and the same base. They also cease together. 17
