  lightness of citta, citta-lahutā
* pliancy of cetasikas, kāya-mudutā

  pliancy of citta, citta-mudutā
* wieldiness of cetasikas, kāya-kammaññatā

  wieldiness of citta, citta-kammaññatā
* proficiency of cetasikas, kāya-pāguññatā

  proficiency of citta, citta-pāguññatā
* uprightness of cetasikas, kāya-ujukatā

  uprightness of citta, citta-ujukatā

*These sobhana cetasikas accompany: twentyfour sobhana cittas of the sense-sphere, kāmāvacara sobhana cittas.*

* eight mahā-kusala cittas
* eight mahā-vipākacittas
* eight mahā-kiriyacittas

  *fifteen rūpa-jhānacittas of five stages*
* five rūpāvacara kusala cittas
* five rūpāvacara vipākacittas
* five rūpāvacara kiriyacittas

  *12 arūpāvacara-jhānacittas of fourstages*
* four arūpāvacara kusala cittas
* four arūpāvacara vipākacittas
* four arūpāvacara kiriyacittas
* eight lokuttara cittas

  (or forty, when lokuttara cittas accompanied by the jhāna-factors of the different stages of jhāna are taken into account.)

## Six Sobhana Cetasikas which do not accompany each Sobhana Citta: {.subsection}

* abstinence from wrong speech, vacīduccarita virati
* abstinence from wrong action, kāyaduccarita virati
* abstinence from wrong livelihood, ājīvaduccarita virati
* compassion, karuṇā
* sympathetic joy, muditā
* understanding or wisdom, paññā

Thus, altogether there are *twenty-five sobhana cetasikas*, of which nineteen arise with each sobhana citta and six do not arise with each sobhana citta.

The three abstinences (the virati cetasikas) can accompany the following cittas:

* eight mahā-kusala cittas which are of the sense-sphere (kamāvacara

  cittas)
* eight (or forty) lokuttara cittas which are always accompanied by

  all three abstinences
* Compassion (karuṇā) can accompany the following cittas:
* eight mahā-kusala cittas
* eight mahā-kiriyacittas
* twelve rūpāvacara cittas (the rūpāvacara kusala cittas, vipākacittas

  and kiriyacittas of the first, second, third and fourth stage of

  jhāna (of the fivefold system)

thus, compassion can accompany twenty-eight types of citta

Sympathetic joy (muditā) can accompany the following cittas:

* eight mahā-kusala cittas
* eight mahā-kiriyacittas
* twelve rūpāvacara cittas

thus, sympathetic joy can accompany twenty-eight types of citta in all.

Understanding (paññā) accompanies the following cittas:

* four mahā-kusala cittas (those which are called: ñāṇa-sampayutta,

  accompanied by understanding)
* four mahā-vipākacittas (ñāṇa-sampayutta)
* four mahā-kiriyacittas (ñāṇa-sampayutta)
* five rūpāvacara kusala cittas (of the five stages of rūpa-jhāna)
* five rūpāvacara vipākacittas
* five rūpāvacara kiriyacittas
* four arūpāvacara kusala cittas (of the four stages of arūpa-jhāna)
* four arūpāvacara vipākacittas
* four arūpāvacara kiriyacittas
* eight lokuttara cittas

Thus, understanding accompanies fortyseven types of citta in all: twelve kāmāvacara cittas, fifteen rūpāvacara cittas, twelve arūpāvacara cittas and eight lokuttara cittas

When forty lokuttara cittas are counted instead of eight, namely, lokuttara cittas accompanied by the jhāna-factors of the five stages of jhāna, there are seventynine cittas in all accompanied by understanding.
