行蘊 [xing yun]—Sankhara-skandha (行蕴 [xing yun])—[Term] Sankhara (行 [xing]) refers to the causes and conditions that produce (造作 [zao zuo]) and flow (迁流 [qian liu]) through the three times (三世 [san shi]) in conditioned phenomena (有为法 [you wei fa]). Among these, excluding the four—form (色 [se]), feeling (受 [shou]), perception (想 [xiang]), and consciousness (识 [shi])—other conditioned phenomena (有为法 [you wei fa]) are called the Sankhara-skandha (行蕴 [xing yun]). It is one of the Five Aggregates (五蕴 [wu yun]). Skandha (蕴 [yun]) means accumulation (积集 [ji ji]), and it is also a general term for conditioned phenomena (有为法 [you wei fa]).

The Abhidharmakośa-śāstra (俱舍论 [ju she lun]), vol. 1, states: "The remaining [categories of dharmas] constitute the Sankhara-skandha (行蕴 [xing yun])." The Abhidharmakośa-bhāṣya-ṭīkā (颂疏 [song shu]), vol. 1, states: "The four refer to form (色 [se]), feeling (受 [shou]), perception (想 [xiang]), and consciousness (识 [shi]). Apart from these four aggregates (蕴 [yun]), the remaining forty-four mental factors (心所 [xin suo]) and fourteen non-associated formations (不想应 [bu xiang ying])—these fifty-eight dharmas are what remain after the four aggregates, and are collectively called the Sankhara-skandha (行蕴 [xing yun]). The two meanings of 'producing' (造作 [zao zuo]) and 'flowing' (迁流 [qian liu]) are called sankhara (行 [xing]). From this perspective, the Five Aggregates (五蕴 [wu yun]) including form (色 [se]), etc., can all be called sankhara (行 [xing]). However, because the Sankhara-skandha (行蕴 [xing yun]) encompasses many dharmas, it is specifically given the name sankhara (行 [xing])."

The Abhidharmakośa-bhāṣya-ṭīkā-vyākhyā (俱舍光记 [ju she guang ji]), vol. 1, further states: "Question: If, in terms of producing (造作 [zao zuo]) or flowing (迁流 [qian liu]), the other four aggregates (蕴 [yun]) can also be called sankhara (行 [xing]), why does only the Sankhara-skandha (行蕴 [xing yun]) exclusively receive the name sankhara (行 [xing])? Answer: Although the other four aggregates can also be called sankhara (行 [xing]), they encompass fewer sankhara (行 [xing]), and thus each receives a specific name. The Sankhara-skandha (行蕴 [xing yun]) encompasses many sankhara (行 [xing]), and therefore it receives the name sankhara (行 [xing])."

行蘊—【術語】造作於有為法之因緣遷流於三世，謂之行。此中除色受想識四者，其他之有為法，名行蘊。五蘊之一。蘊者積集之義，是亦有為法之通名也。俱舍論一曰：「四餘為行蘊。」頌疏一曰：「四者謂色受想識，除四蘊外，諸餘心所有四十四及十四不想應，此五十八法是四蘊餘，總名行蘊。造作遷流二義名行，據此義邊，色等五蘊，俱合名行。謂由行蘊攝法多故，偏得行名。」俱舍光記一之餘曰：「問：若於造作，或約遷流，餘四蘊亦名為行，何故行蘊獨得行名？解云：其餘四蘊雖亦名行，攝行少故，各受別名。行蘊攝行多故，故得行名。」
