The Stages of Vipassana - 12th stage of vipassana nana
The twelfth stage of vipassana nana is Adaption knowledge (anuloma
nana).
Adaptation knowledge, or conformity knowledge, is the vipassana nana that
arises in the process during which enlightenment is attained, that is, the
magga-víthi. This kind of knowledge conforms to the clear understanding of
the Noble Truths. Adaption knowledge is the three moments of maha-kusala
citta accompanied by panna arising in the magga-víthi. They are: parikamma
or preparatory consciousness, upacara or access and anuloma or
adaptation. These three cittas have as their object one of the three
general characteristics. They realise the conditioned dhamma appearing at
that moment either as impermanent, or as dukkha or as anatta. Adaptation
knowledge adapts or conforms to detachment from the objects that are
conditioned dhammas.
For the person who is keen (tikkha puggala), that is, who has keen panna
and can realise the Noble Truths rapidly, there are two moments of
adaptation knowledge, because he does not need preparatory
consciousness (parikamma).
