【vedana^
】
'feeling', sensation, is the 2nd of the 5 groups of existence (s. khandha II). According to its nature, it may be divided into 5 classes: (1) bodily agreeable feeling (ka^yika^ sukha^-vedana^ = sukha); (2) bodily disagreeable feeling (ka^yika^ dukkha^-vedana^ = dukkha^); (3) mentally agreeable feeling (cetasika^ sukha^-vedana^ = somanassa); (4) mentally disagreeable feeling (cetasika^ dukkha^-vedana^ = domanassa); (5) indifferent or neutral (adukkha-m-asukha^ vedana^ = upekkha^, q.v.).
With regard to the 6 senses, one distinguishes 6 kinds of feeling: feeling associated with seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, bodily impression and mental impression. The textual wording of it is 'feeling arisen through visual contact' (cakkhu-samphassaja^ vedana^; S. XXII, 55; D. 22), etc.
Feeling is one of the 7 mental factors inseparably associated with all consciousness whatever, s. na^ma. In the formula of the dependent origination (paticcasamuppa^da, q.v.), feeling is the condition for the arising of craving (tanha^). The above-mentioned 5 kinds of feeling are enumerated amongst the 22 faculties (indriya, q.v.). - See M. 59; Contemplation of Feeling (Vedana^ Samyutta), by Nyanaponika Thera (WHEEL 303/304).
