In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Pali Kanon: Manual of Buddhist Terms and DoctrinesSamutthana (“origination”).—There are 4 kinds of origination of corporeal phenomena, namely:
- through karma,
- consciousness,
- temperature,
- nutriment.
For example, 'karma-produced' (kamma-s. = kammaja, karma-born) are the sense organs, sexual characteristics, etc., which, according to their nature, are conditioned either through wholesome or unwholesome karma formations (volitional actions; s. paticcasamuppāda, 2) in a previous existence. 'Mind produced', i.e. consciousness-produced (citta-samutthāna = cittaja) are bodily and verbal expression (viññatti, q.v.).
For a detailed exposition, see Vis.M. XX. - (App.).
Theravāda is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the GaganagañjaparipṛcchāSamutthāna (समुत्थान) refers to “that which is produced from”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly, “Then the Bodhisattva Gaganagañja said this to the congregation of Bodhisattvas: ‘Sons of good family, may all of you elucidate the gates into the dharma of transcending the path of the works of Māra’ [...] The Bodhisattva Ratnaparityāga said: ‘The works of Māra are produced from obsession with self (ātma-samutthāna). When you are established in the purity of self, what can the Māra do? Why is that? Because vices are purified by the purity of self, and all dharmas are purified by the purity of vices. That which purifies all dharmas purifies open space. Thus the Bodhisattva who is established in the purity of open space transcends the sphere of the Māra’”.
