Kamma produceskalapas at each sub-mind-moment—starting with the arising submomentof the rebirth-linking citta, until the seventeenth mindmomentpreceding the death citta.With the exception of rebirth and sense-door cittas, whichare resultants, all other kammic, resultant and functional cittasin the sensual plane produce kalapas. The rebirth citta does notproduce citta-born matter, since at the moment of rebirth thematter that arises is born of kamma and because this citta is newto the new existence.At the time of rebirth, the internal fire element found inkamma-born kalapas combines with the external fire elementand starts producing organic temperature-born kalapas.2Thereafter the fire element in the kalapas born of all four causesproduces organic temperature-born kalapas throughout thecourse of existence.</blockquote>
