| − | The aggregate referred to in [[English]] and feelings does not mean [[emotion|emotional]] feelings, but refers more to [[sensation]]s. These ''vedana'' are either [[neutral]], [[pleasure|pleasurable]] or [[pain]]ful in the body and pleasant or unpleasant sensations in the mind. Buddhist philosophy says that the mind's neutral sensations are not counted separately since they are indistinguishable and inseparable from the body's neutral sensations. At every single [[moment]], we are experiencing sensations, predominantly neutral ones, but also pleasant and painful ones. | + | The aggregate referred to in [[English]] and feelings does not mean [[emotion]]al feelings, but refers more to [[sensation]]s.
