Contemporaneous motivating karmic impulse

The mental factor that draws the mind into a physical, verbal or mental action. The mental actions, here, would be ones that do not bring on a karmic impulse for a physical or verbal action. As part of the contemporaneous motivating drive, the contemporaneous motivating karmic impulse is equivalent to an urging karmic impulse (bsam-pa'i las).
