A commentary by Ācārya Kelsang Wangdi
This is a literal commentary by Acārya Kelsang Wangdi on chapter one of the Abhidharmakośa, which is about the constituents (dhātu). It outlines the Abhidharma analysis of phenomena, and offers its basic view of the nature of reality, primarily within the framework of the five aggregates.

It then elaborates the concept of conditioned phenomena in the forms of the five skandhas, twelve āyatanas, and eighteen dhātus. The final section of the chapter is an extensive presentation of the twenty-two different ways of classifying the eighteen dhātus.
