In the Paṭisambhidāmaggas section on fading away (virāgakathā) details two kinds of fading away, “fading away due to nibbāna,” and as “all mental phenomenon born with nibbāna as their object are types of fading away.” Also in the section on solitude (vivekakathā) there are five types of fading mentioned, which are the same as the five types of destruction describe in the section on solitude, noted in footnote 149.

In Paṭisambhidāmaggas the section on solitude (vivekakathā) describe five kinds of giving up, which are the same as the five types of destruction, noted in footnote 149.
