mano dha^tu

'mind-element', is one of the 18 elements (s. dha^tu II). This term, unlike mana^yatana, does not apply to the whole of consciousness, but designates only that special element of consciousness which first, at the beginning of the process of sense-perception, performs the function of advertence (a^vajjana; Tab. I, 70) to the sense-object and, then after twice having become conscious of it performs the function of reception (sampaticchana; Tab I- 39,.55) into mind-consciousness. See vin~n~a^na-kicca.
