Seventy-five dharmas of the Abhidharma-kosha
The Abhidharma-kosha identifies seventy-five dharmas (elements) "that the school held were substantially existent (dravyasat) and endowed with intrinsic nature (svabhava)".[1] These are:[2][3][note 1]
- the five sense organs (indriya),
- the five sense objects,
- nonmanifest materiality (or "imperceptible forms") (avijnapti-rupa),
- mind (citta),
- forty-six concomittant mental factors (caitta),
- fourteen non-concurrent formations (aka "conditioned forces dissociated from thought" (Buswell) or "elements neither substantial forms nor mental fuctions" (Goodman)) (citta-viprayukta-samskara), and
- three unconditioned factors (or "non-created elements") (asamskrta-dharma)
