Particularly regarding the true nature of the Five Aggregates.
"Isn't it worth examining what sakkāya is? Aren't the Five Aggregates called sakkāya? Didn't the Buddha have sakkāya (aggregates) but no diṭṭhi (wrong view)?
Didn't the Buddha have the Five Aggregates but no upādāna (clinging)? Notice - the aggregates can exist while clinging ceases.
At the moment of contact - this is what needs mindfulness. When sense objects meet sense doors, we need to know. Is there anything else to observe besides these six sense doors?
The essential point is understanding the aggregates. When the aggregates are understood, wrong view falls away.
As stated in the Dhammapada (Dhp 113):
'Though one should live a hundred years
Without seeing arising and passing away,
Yet better is a single day's life
Of one who sees arising and passing away.'
Whoever - whether monastic or lay
Not seeing - the arising and passing of the Five Aggregates
Lives - for a hundred years
Is not noble, isn't that what's taught?
But one who sees - the arising and passing of the Five Aggregates
Lives - even for one day
Is noble, isn't that what's taught?
Even living for one hour is noble, even two or three minutes is noble if one sees with understanding. Isn't this worth examining? Wrong view can only fall away through understanding the aggregates..."
