Dear Jim and Nina,

This question highlights a question I've had since
beginning to read Nina's work--what is it that makes
'an unpleasant object' unpleasant?  By that I don't
mean 'vipaka'--I mean intrinsically in the object.
Probably this is a semantic misunderstanding on my
part.

Thanks in advance,

mike

It seems to me that bhavangacitta would not be able to
experience an
unpleasant object because that would entail an
accompanying unpleasant
feeling.  From my understanding, only somanassa or
upekkha feelings can
accompany a bhavangacitta. Is this right or wrong?
