[52/211]
Pali Text:
Yassa yattha rūpakkhandho uppajjati tassa tattha vedanākkhandho uppajjatī'ti?
Asaññasattaṃ upapajjantānaṃ tesaṃ tattha rūpakkhandho uppajjati, no ca tesaṃ tattha vedanākkhandho uppajjati. Pañcavokāraṃ upapajjantānaṃ tesaṃ tattha rūpakkhandho ca uppajjati vedanākkhandho ca uppajjati.

Translation:
Q. Matter aggregate arises to this person at this plane. Does feeling aggregate arise to that person at that plane?
A. To those at the birth-moment of non-percipient beings matter aggregate arises at that plane; feeling aggregate does not arise to those persons at that plane. To those at the birth-moment of five-aggregate persons, matter aggregate arises and feeling aggregate also arises at that plane.
