Tika-paṭṭhāna; Pāli term meaning literally ‘origins of triads’.
First part of the Paṭṭhāna, the final book of the Abhidharma Piṭaka of the Pāli Canon.
It is a highly technical text, consisting of a minutely detailed analysis of the doctrine of conditionality (pratītya-samutpāda).
Its commentary was composed by Buddhaghoṣa in the 5th century.
