Sankhara are natural phenomena. They are our "thoughts" developed in our mind. These thoughts appeared and disappeared in our mind as long as we are a human being. This appearing and disappearing of thoughts happens at the speed of nano seconds. It is set in motion from the time we are born till the day we die.

This flow of thoughts is automatic and runs like a non-stop movie in our mind. We can’t prevent it from appearing or disappearing in our mind but we can halt-it temporarily when we need to concentrate on our work.

When we reach some states of consciousness that we often hear about under the calling transcendental, beyond conceptual thought, union with the divine, or anything whatsoever, those are still aggregates being set in motion. Whether we are thinking, talking, making a move, experiencing some pain, a itchy or neutral sensation, these are the five aggregates, which are set in motion Any experience that we can do, in any field whatsoever, in any manner whatsoever, where ever or whenever we do it, these are still aggregates being set in motion.

Five aggregates are set in motion When nibbána is known, when nibbána is reached, as soon as nibbána is observed, these are still the five aggregates being set in motion Upon perceiving a sensation, whatever it is, as soon as we are aware of something, in reality the five aggregates are set in motion
