	Summary of Paramatthadhamma2: The world's only provable science of the mind, the Buddha's greatest teachings
		Kamma is a paccaya for vipaka to arise, therefore kamma is a kamma-paccaya, one of the 24 paccaya.
		Therefore one should examine to understand the reality that is vipaka more conscientiously, that the reality which is vipaka is a nama-dhamma, or citta and cetasika that arise because of past accomplished kamma as paccaya.
		Is the rupa that arises from kamma as paccaya a vipaka?

	Vipaka - Abhidhamma Vipassana
		Vipaka vatta (result) connsists of vinnana (consciousness), nama- rupa, salayatana (six bases), phassa (contact), vedana(feeling), jati (birth), upapatti-bhava, jara-marana (decay and death).
		Now the moments of vipaka citta through the sense doors (that arise countless times in a day) can be either from this same kamma that conditioned this life or they can be from other kammas.

		The santirana-citta which is kusala vipaka accompanied by upekkha, can, apart from the function of investigating in a sense-door process, also perform the function of patisandhi in human and heavenly planes.
		Of the types of citta which are kusala vipaka, one type is ahetuka kusala vipaka and seventeen types are sahetuka kusala vipaka (accompanied by beautiful roots).
		The patisandhi-citta which is sahetuka vipaka (with beautiful roots) is the result of kusala kamma which is of a higher degree than the kusala kamma producing an ahetuka patisandhi-citta.

		If we talk about ahetuka vipaka cittas, then it is purely the character or the function that particular citta, nothing to do with the color.
		Therefore, the arising of the citta is accumulation, especially the arising of the citta at the mano-dvara-javana-vitthi, where the thought, speech and action arises after many processes at the mano-dvara-javana-vitthi, which the accumulation of kamma.
		You wrote "If we talk > about ahetuka > vipaka cittas, then it is purely the character or the function > that > particular citta, nothing to do with the color." The rupa which is seen (vannayatana) is only rupa, however it is related to the nama which is seeing consciousness (cakkhu vinnana).

		If the seeing-consciousness is akusala vipaka, the sampaticchana-citta (receiving-consciousness) is also akusala vipaka; if the seeing-consciousness is kusala vipaka, the sampaticchana-citta is also kusala vipaka.
		Sampaticchana-citta: is ahetuka vipaka; there are no akusala hetus (unwholesome roots) or sobhana hetus (beautiful roots) arising with this type of citta.
		Seven types of the ahetuka vipakacittas are akusala vipaka and eight types are kusala vipaka, since there are two types of santirana-citta which are kusala vipaka.

		It is also balancing to vata and kapha; vata is balanced by the predominate amla – sour taste and the madhura vipaka and kapha is balanced by the tikta, kashaya taste and the qualities of laghu and ruksha.
		Its vata pacifying action due amla rasa and madhura vipaka is expressed in the anabolic action as it supports the building and strengthening of tissues countering degeneration associated with aging.
		Having the main feature of having snigdha quality, madhura rasa, shita virya and madhura vipaka, indicates that this herb is building and strengthen in its actions supporting the kapha dosha in maintaining stability of the tissues.

	E-sangha, Buddhist Forum and Buddhism Forum -> Vipakacitta
		Van Gorkom notes "vipaka is a citta which experiences something pleasant or unpleasant." Robert states that "vipakacitta is a result of kusula or akusula citta," that "every moment of sense door experience is vipaka," and that "there is the experience of inherently desirable or inherently undesirable objects.
		Even now while you reading this there is vipaka occuring - and in fact at least some of the vipaka (through the eye door)must be the result of kusala kamma done in the past, maybe aeons ago.
		Well vipaka has many other conditions that need to assist it to arise- so for example one who is very respectful etc,etc, can delay the ripening of vipaka that might shorten life.

	Karma
		Karma is action, and Vipaka, fruit or result, is its reaction.
		Karma is like potential seed: Vipaka could be likened to the fruit arising from the tree – the effect or result.
		When Vipaka’s concomitant material things are disadvantageous, they are known as Adinaya, full of wretchedness, and appear as poverty, ugliness, disease, short life-span and so forth.

		Theoretically we learn that kamma, consisting of kusala (wholesome) and akusala (unwholesome), arise during the javana cittas, and vipaka as the patisandhi-citta (rebirth consciousness) then the bhavanga (life continuum).
		Janakopathambhaka-kamma means that not only does it cause rebirth but also supports life by causing seeing, hearing, etc. There are also other kamma that bring results after that, since during our lifetimes we were not born with such a name, in such a family, in these life-styles, or in these surroundings, permanently.
		Any citta that is vipaka (result), must arise because of kamma as one of the paccaya (conditions).

	YogaJournal.Com: Cause & Effect
		An herb's taste, as with foods, is divided into two types: the initial taste, or rasa, and the postdigestive taste, or vipaka.
		Vipaka is the effect of the herb or food after being altered by the digestive fire.
		After the rasa has been assimilated, three postdigestive tastes remain: sweet and salty have a sweet vipaka; sour has a sour vipaka; and bitter, pungent, and astringent have a pungent vipaka.

		It is succeeded by the dvi-panca-vinnana (seeing-consciousness, hearing-consciousness, etc.) which is vipaka, the result of a good deed or an ill deed.
		The dvi-panca-vinnana is succeeded by sampaticchana-citta (receiving-consciousness) which is vipaka and this citta is succeeded by santirana-citta (investigating- consciousness) which is also vipaka.
		Only the first and the second kind of santirana-citta (santirana-citta which is akusala vipaka, and santirana-citta which is kusala vipaka, accompanied by upekkha) can perform the functions of patisandhi, bhavanga and cuti.

	Zolag-Kamma Condition and Vipaka Condition
		The arahat can still have vipaka which is conditioned by asynchronous kamma-condition, but from the time he attained arahatship he could not perform new kamma.
		When the patisandhi-citta is the result of kusala kamma which is weak, it is ahetuka kusala vipakacitta (unaccompanied by sobhana hetus) and in that case, although one has a happy rebirth, one is handicapped from the first moment of life.
		When there is right understanding of kamma and vipaka, the citta is at that moment kusala citta and there is no opportunity for aversion towards unpleasant experiences.

	Summary of Paramatthadhamma2bis: The world's only provable science of the mind, the Buddha's greatest teachings
		Good realities which are not kusala-dhamma are kusala- vipaka, which are the results of kusala-kamma and sobhana-kiriya, which are citta and cetasika of the arahanta with completely eradicated kusala and akusala.
		Akusala-dhamma is the reality that is bad or harmful, the hetu for unpleasant, unhappy vipaka to arise as result.
		Sukha-vedana, from the perspective of the five vedana, means vedana-cetasika that arise only with kaya-vinnana-citta that is kusala- vipaka the instant it is in contact with pleasant bodysense arammana: sukhasahagatam kaya-vinnanam kusala-vipakam.

		Only the mental result of kamma is called vipaka, and thus only citta and cetasika (mental factors arising with the citta) can be vipaka.
		Akusala vipaka cannot be the result of kusala kamma.
		There are two kinds of ahetuka vipaka experiencing an object through each of the five doors: one is akusala vipaka and one is kusala vipaka.
