To be completely honest, I only have a vague idea as to what adhimokkha means (also Skt. adhimukti). I have done a good deal of research on it, and frankly, I have not found any source that has been particularly helpful. Seems most people only have a vague idea about it.davyji wrote:Hey Queequeq
cetasika adhimokkha?
Is this samadhi without seed? Clarity from this viewpoint?

Its an indeterminate cetasika - as best I can gather, its the moment a phenomena appears, but before any understanding arises. In Poussin's translation of Abhidharmakosaabsayam, there's a footnote that describes it as "approbation" of an object. Another way to describe it is the most rudimentary recognition of a dharma, but even recognition might imply too much mental activity.
From the descriptions of clarity, it seems there may be some overlap...
What do you mean by samadhi without seed?
