cittasaṃprayuktasaṃskāra (T. sems dang mtshungs ldan gyi ’du byed; C. xin xiangying fa 心相應法) is translated as “conditioned forces associated with thought,” "formations concurrent with mind," etc. Within the Abhidharma, this term is synonymous with the mental factors (caitta), the dharmas that in various combinations accompany mind or thought (citta).[1][2]
The Khenjuk states:
- [The aggregate of formations] includes the formations concurrent with mind [a cognitive act] such as the [fifty-one] mental states, and the formations that are not concurrent with a cognitive act, the so-called non-concurrent formations such as acquisition and so forth.[2]
