Piti is not physical
[edit]I have removed the parts which were saying that piti is physical, this is just wrong. There is no clear division here canonically. The Buddhist literature rather divides the body into five skandas. Piti is defined as a samskara and sukha as a vedana (as shown by the Buddhaghosa quote in this article), it is best to stick to these terms.
Notably, samskaras can be bodily and mental, and in the five skanda scheme they often define volitions or intentions. So piti cannot be just physical. This article was probably confusing a ton of meditators lol! Javierfv1212 (talk) 15:08, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
