The Buddha analysed a being
The Buddha analysed a being into Five 'Aggregates' (also known as 5 Khandhas or Skandhas):
FORM, FEELING, PERCEPTION, MENTAL FORMATIONS & CONSCIOUSNESS.
1) FORM - the body (comprised primarily of solidity, fluidity, heat, motion + 24 secondary elements)
2) FEELING - a sensation arising when an object comes into contact with one of our senses (i.e. when a sound strikes your ear.
3) PERCEPTION - a process that takes place when there is contact between a sense door and the appropriate object. One type of perception for each of the senses
4) MENTAL FORMATIONS. -50 different mental qualities which give characteristics to the state of consciousness such as love kindness and compassion or anger ill-will or gred, or netural qualities like concetration or attention.
5) CONSCIOUSNESS - is not constant but arises when a sense door is stimulated by the appropriate object then a particular typw of consciousness arises. Eg if a smell strikes the nose the olfactory consciousness will arise. This consciousness arises and passes away in a split second.
Buddha said the Five Aggregates are all changing from moment to moment. However, we don't see things as they really are. Nothing is permanent (Anicca). There is no self inherent in anything (anatta). Suffering is a given of all conditioned things (Dukkha).
