asaṅkhārika-citta:an Abhidhamma term signifying a 'state of consciousness arisen spontaneously',i.e.without previous deliberation,preparation,or prompting by others; hence:'unprepared,unprompted'.This term and its counterpart (sasaṅkhārikacitta,q.v.),probably go back to a similar distinction made in the Suttas (A.IV,171; "Path" 184).See Tab.I; examples in Vis.M.XIV,84f.
