Buddhist Dictionary

by late Ven. Nyanalokita Thera:

akusala: 'unwholesome', are all those karmic volitions (kamma-cetanā; see cetanā) and the consciousness and mental concomitants associated therewith, which are accompanied either by greed (lobha) or hate (dosa) or merely delusion (moha); and all these phenomena are causes of unfavourable kamma-results and contain the seeds of unhappy destiny or rebirth. Cf. kamma, paṭiccasamuppāda (1), Table II.
