five [[Aggregates]] (pañca-[[Skandha]], 五蘊, 五陰). A sentient being is composed of [[The five aggregates]]: [[Rūpa]] ([[Form]]), vedanā (sensory reception), saṁjñā ([[Perception]]), saṁskāra ([[Mental]] processing), and [[Vijñāna]] ([[Consciousness]]). The first one is material and the other four are [[Mental]]. Since these four are non-[[Form]] (非色), thus present in name only, [[The five aggregates]] are summarized as name and [[Form]] (名色). [[Skandha]] (蘊) in [[Sanskrit]] also means that which covers or conceals (陰), and the regular working of the [[Five Skandhas]] conceals true reality from a sentient being.
