Five Aggregates/Skandas

1. Form (all things physical)
2. Feeling (happiness, unhappiness or neutral)
3. Perception (detecting the special characteristics of an object such as shape, color, etc.)
4. Formation (variable affection experience not covered by the other 4)
5. Consciousness (vision, sounds, smells, taste, touch and mind)

These Skandas come together at birth and separate at death.
