viññãna: Consciousness; simple cognizance. As the fifth component of personality, viññãna khandha simply registers sense data, feelings, and mental impressions as they occur. For instance, when visual images make contact with the eye, or when thoughts occur in the mind, consciousness of them arises simultaneously. When that object subsequently ceases, so too does the consciousness that took note of it.

　　识(viññāṇa)：意识；简单的认知。作为五蕴中的最后一个，识蕴只是认知记录感官输入、感受以及心理影像。例如，当色尘与眼接触，或念头产生时，相应的意识同时生起。当这些对象过去时，与之相应的意识也同时谢去。
