Rūpa-kalāpa: 'material group', material unit,
designates a combination of several physical phenomena constituting a temporary
unity. Thus, for instance, the so-called 'dead matter' forms the most primitive
group, consisting only of 8 physical phenomena, called the 'pure 8-fold
unit' or 'octad' suddhatthakakalāpa to wit: the 4 elements the solid,
fluid, heat, motion; colour, smell, taste, nutriment
pathavī, āpo, tejo, vāyo; vanna, gandha, rasa,
ojā In Vis.M, and elsewhere, it is
also called ojatthamaka-kalāpa
'the octad with nutriment as the 8th factor'.
The simplest form of living matter is the '9-fold vitality unit' or 'life-ennead'
jīvita-navaka-kalāpa formed
by adding 'vitality' to the octad. Seven decades, or units of ten
dasaka-kalāpa are formed by adding
to the 9-fold unit one of the following material phenomena: heart physical
seat of mind, sex, eye, ear, nose, tongue or body. - See
Vis.M XVIII, 4; Compendium of Buddhist
Philosophy PTS, p. 164, 250;
Atthasālini Tr., II, 413f.
