[2] Missaka-saïgaha (Compendium of Mixed Categories)
There are seven mixed categories – viz., Hetu, Jhànaïga, Maggaïga,
Indriya, Bala, Adhipati and âhàra.
1 Six Hetus (Six Roots)
‘Hetu’ means root, cause, condition or root-condition. As the roots
make a tree firm, prosperous and well-established, so in the same
way the six hetus make cittas and cetasikas associated with them
firm, prosperous and well-established at the sense-objects.
There are 3 moral roots and 3 immoral roots. The tree
immoral roots (akusala-hetus) are:
1 Lobha – greed or attachment,
2 Dosa – ill-will or hatred,
3 Moha – ignorance or delusion.
