Preparatory efforts conducing to decisive distinction: i.e., to the arising of<br>outflow-free knowledge. These are also called the skilful roots; there<br>are four: uṣmagata, mūrdhan, kṣānti,laukikāgra-dharma. +

There are<br>four: jāti-jāti,sthiti-sthiti,jarā-jarā, anityatā-anityatā (/vyaya-vyaya). <br>Each saṃskṛta-dharma is momentary thanks to the operation<br>of the saṃskṛta-lakṣaṇa-s and each of these is in turned<br> rendered momentary thanks to the operation of the four anulakṣaṇa-s. +
