Bhavanga
Bhavanga (Pali, "ground of becoming") is the most fundamental aspect of mind in Theravada Buddhism.〔Wallace, page 95.〕 It is an exclusively Theravada doctrine that differs from Sarvastivadin and Sautrantika theories of mind, and has been compared to the Mahayana concept of store-consciousness.〔Waldron, pages 81, 131.〕 The term does not occur in the Nikayas, though the Theravada tradition identifies it with one that does; the phenomenon described as "luminous mind."〔Harvey1, pages 97-98.〕 The Theravada tradition asserts that it is the bhavanga that motivates one to seek nibbana.〔Wallace, page 100.〕 It is first found in the Patthana, part of the Theravada Abhidhamma Pitaka.〔Collins, page 238.〕
The bhavanga concept does not directly address certain questions first raised in the Kathavatthu.〔Waldron, page 86.〕 The limits of Abhidharmic analysis were first raised there, then more specifically by the Sautrantikas, and then finally explicitly and systematically by the Yogacharins.〔Waldron, pages 86-87.〕
In the Theravadin Abhidhamma, both conceptualizing and mental consciousness normally arise conditioned by other mental states. However, they also have an unspecified kind of ''rūpa'' (matter, form) as "support condition" and "basis." Peter Harvey finds that incorporating this physical basis more fully may answer certain questions that the Abhidhamma does not address.〔Harvey2, page 165.〕
In modern times, Theravadins such as Nyanatiloka Thera have departed from traditional descriptions of the bhavanga, broadening the scope of the concept.〔Waldron, pages 82-87.〕 Nyanatiloka Thera suggests that the bhavanga can be used to explain continuity of the personality in a lifetime, but that the nervous system could also be the register in which sense impressions are stored.〔Nyantiloka Mahathera, "Fundamentals of Buddhism: Four Lectures." ().〕
