[Footnote 405: Udana VI. 4. The story is that a king bade a number of
blind men examine an elephant and describe its shape. Some touched the
legs, some the tusks, some the tail and so on and gave descriptions
accordingly, but none had any idea of the general shape.]

[Footnote 407: Or form: _rupa_.]

[Footnote 408: The word Jiva, sometimes translated _soul_, is not
equivalent to _atman_. It seems to be a general expression for all the
immaterial side of a human being. It is laid down (Dig. Nik. VI. and
VII.) that it is fruitless to speculate whether the Jiva is distinct
from the body or not.]

[Footnote 409: Sanna like many technical Buddhist terms is difficult to
render adequately, because it does not cover the same ground as any one
English word. Its essential meaning is recognition by a mark. When we
perceive a blue thing we recognize it as blue and as like other blue
things that we have marked. See Mrs Rhys Davids, Dhamma-Sangani, p. 8.]

[Footnote 410: The Samyutta-Nikaya XXII. 79. 8 states that the Sankharas
are so-called because they compose what is compound (sankhatam).]

[Footnote 411: Maj. Nik. 44.]

[Footnote 412: In this sense Sankhara has also some affinity to the
Sanskrit use of Samskara to mean a sacramental rite. It is the essential
nature of such a rite to produce a special effect. So too the Sankharas
present in one existence inevitably produce their effect in the next
existence. For Sankhara see also the long note by S.Z. Aung at the end
of the _Compendium of Philosophy_ (P.T.S. 1910).]

[Footnote 413: The use of this word for Vinnana is, I believe, due to
Mrs Rhys Davids.]

[Footnote 415: Pali, Khanda. But it has become the custom to use the
Sanskrit term. Cf. Karma, nirvana.]

modern times see William James, _Text Book of Psychology_, especially
pp. 203, 215, 216.]
