What is the difference between “San” and “manō saṅkhāra”?

When they lead to conscious thinking or speech, they are called vaci saṅkhāra. Those conscious thoughts that lead to bodily actions are kāya saṅkhāra. On the other hand, manō saṅkhāra arise automatically in the mind. Therefore, “ san ” is associated with anything that one is thinking about doing.

What are the different types of saṅkhāra?

First categorization: Saṅkhāra can be three types of mano, vaci, and kāya. Mano saṅkhārā arise automatically due to one’s gati. For example, when one hears a type of music, one may generate “thoughts of liking.” But another person may not like that music. That is why it depends on one’s gati.

Why are sankharas so important?

The fact that sankharas can include both active forces and the things produced by them is highly significant and secures for the term its role as the cornerstone of the Buddha’s philosophical vision.
