the difference between aggregate existent, nibbāna existent, and nonexistent (paññatti)

the difference between aggregate existent, nibbāna existent, and nonexistent (paññatti):

Nibbāna has no cause, because nibbāna never arise (every aggregate arisen by causes). Nibbāna is reality, existent, because nibbāna is the end of suffering (5 aggregates), the opposite side of suffering.

But paññatti, such as space, is not reality, not existent, although we can know it. Because paññatti has not any cause, too. And mainly, it is neither included in aggregate existent, nor included in nibbāna existent. It is not arises by causes like aggregate, and not opposite side of suffering like nibbāna. Paññatti is imagination that is imagined by consciousness. So we can imagine paññatti follow to aggregate, nibbāna, paññatti, or not follow to anything (=wrong view). That magination of consciousness never arise, but aggregate can arise even though without imagine. We can not called "is made by" because paññatti never is made by causes. It is just imagination.

So, arahanta-phalasamāpatti is difference of paññatti, because arahanta-phalasamāpatti completely abadon evey akusala, before arahanta can realise nibbāna. But everyone can realise, imagine, paññatti.

This reply may look like general sutta that described about nibbāna, because this topic is the deepest topic in buddhism. So it is very hard to describe.
