'advertence' of the mind towards the object, forms the first stage in the process of consciousness (s. viññāna-kicca).

If an object of the 5 physical senses is concerned, it is called 'five-door advertence' (pañca dvārāvajjana); in the case of a mental object, 'mind-door advertence' (mano-dvārāvajjana).
