There are five indriyas: those of ease,
discomfort, happiness, unhappiness and indifference. Just as from the rubbing
together of two sticks warmth and heat are produced, so, from their separation,
warmth and heat, thus born, are quenched; similarly from contact, experienced as
agreeable, arises the ability of ease (sukhindriya), etc. S. v.211-13.
