What are called the "five aggregates,"
those of material form, sensation of feeling, perception,
volition or mental formations, and consciousness,
are the source of our trouble and suffering.
When the "five aggregates" are not broken up,
it is like a whole watermelon, complete and intact,
with absolutely no opening, not outside world.
How can we develop our wisdom in this way?
Let us not embrace this watermelon of "Five aggregates,"
as if it were some kind of treasure.
Let us break it open,
and get more in touch with the true "Self."
When the "five aggregates" are cleared out,
we will be far away from all suffering and distress.
