How to Contemplate the Non-Self of the Five Aggregates in Daily Life

Every day, contemplate (vipaśyanā-caryā) how the dharma of eating arises, ceases, changes, and is impermanent; how it is suffering; how it is empty; and how it is without self-nature and without any sovereign mastery. Every day, contemplate how the dharma of dressing arises, ceases, changes, and is impermanent; how it is suffering; how it is empty; and how it is without self-nature and without any sovereign mastery.

Contemplate how the feeling (vedanā) experienced in dressing and eating arises, ceases, changes, and is impermanent; how it is suffering; how it is empty; and how it is without self and without any sovereign mastery. Contemplate how the perceptive knowing faculty of the aggregate of perception (saṃjñā) in dressing and eating arises, ceases, changes, and is impermanent; how it is suffering and empty; and how it is without self and without any sovereign mastery. Contemplate how the bodily and mental actions and formations in dressing and eating arise, ceases, changes, and is impermanent; how it is suffering and empty; and how it is without self and without any sovereign mastery. Contemplate how the nature of consciousness in dressing and eating arises, ceases, changes, and is impermanent; how it is suffering and empty; and how it is without self and without any sovereign mastery.
