Seeing The Skandhas - 07-04-21 by Sokuzan - SokukoJi.org

The five skandhas, or “heaps” are an ancient teaching. Simply put, form is the body and the other four are aspects of consciousness: feeling, perception, memory (or concept), and consciousness. Feeling includes the emotional quality that flows in through the thought patterns, which are very spacious until we seal it up with what we think about it. What an excuse to miss your life! You can actually meet your karma head on. I highly recommend that you do this. You don’t have to be a Buddhist, but train your mind so you see clearly what you’re looking at instead of your idea about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jw5M5dtr5eE
