Soka (worry or sorrow) is the unpleasant feeling (domanassavedanà)<br />

present in the 2 dosa-måla cittas.<br />

Parideva (lamentation) is cittaja-vipallàsa-sadda-råpa which<br />

means mind-produced-reversal sound.<br />

Dukkha (pain) is the vedanà-cetasika associated with dukkhasahagata<br />

kàya-vi¤¤àõa citta.<br />

Domanassa (grief) is the vedanà-cetasika associated with the<br />

2 dosa-måla cittas.<br />

Upàyàsà (despair) is the resentment produced by excessive<br />

mental suffering. It is anger (dosa) present in the 2 dosa-måla cittas.<br />

A comparison between grief, lamentation and despair states that<br />

grief is like the boiling of oil in a vessel; lamentation (viz., the<br />

outward expression of grief) is like the overflow (boiling over)<br />

from the vessel when the cooking is done by a fierce fire; despair<br />

is like the simmering in the vessel of what remains after boiling<br />

over until it is all boiled away.<br />

Some Notable Aspects of the Law<br />

periods (kàla), twenty modes (àkàra), three connections (sandhi),<br />

four abridgments (saïkhepa), three rounds (vañña) and two roots<br />

(måla) should be taken into consideration.<br />
