In Buddhist phenomenology and [[Soteriology#Buddhism|soteriology]], the '''skandhas''' (Sanskrit) or '''khandhas''' (Pāḷi), '''aggregates''' in English, are the five functions or aspects that constitute the sentient being: matter, sensation, perception, mental formations and consciousness.{{refn|group=lower-alpha|These are not physical components, but rather an agglomeration or coming together of subliminal inclinations or tendencies.<ref>[http://www.khandro.net/doctrine_skandhas.htm khandro.net: Skandhas]</ref>}}{{refn|group=lower-alpha|[[Thanissaro Bhikkhu|Thanissaro]] (2002) maintains that, according to the [[Pali Canon]], the [[Gautama Buddha|Buddha]] never defined a "person" in terms of the aggregates (Pali: ''khandha'') per se. Thanissaro nevertheless notes that, contrary to what is actually said in the Canon, such a notion is expressed by some modern scholars as if it were pan-Buddhist.
Thanissaro further writes: "This understanding of the khandhas isn't confined to scholars. Almost any modern Buddhist meditation teacher would explain the khandhas in a similar way. And it isn't a modern innovation. It was first proposed at the beginning of the common era in the commentaries to the early Buddhist canons — both the Theravadin and the Sarvastivadin, which formed the basis for Mahayana scholasticism." They serve as objects of clinging and bases for a sense of self.<ref>Thanissaro Bhikkhu, ''Handful of Leaves Volume 2'', 2nd edition 2006, page 309.</ref>}} The Buddha teaches that nothing among them is really "I" or "mine".
In the [[Theravada]] tradition, [[Dukkha|suffering]] arises when one identifies with or [[upadana|clings]] to an aggregate. Suffering is [[Nirvana (Buddhism)|extinguished]] by relinquishing attachments to aggregates.
The [[Mahayana]] tradition further puts forth that ultimate freedom is realized by [[Prajnaparamita|deeply penetrating]] the nature of all aggregates as intrinsically [[Shunyata|empty]] of [[Svabhava|independent existence]].
