What is the difference between the five aggregate and Nama-rupa?
The five aggregate :
Rupa,Vedana,Sanna,Sankhara,Vinnana
Nama-rupa:
"And what is name-&-form? Feeling, perception, intention, contact, & attention: This is called name. The four great elements, and the form dependent on the four great elements: This is called form. This name & this form are called name-&-form.

What interaction is there with name and form once the five aggrigates are extinguished, "blown-out" in Nibbana?

at the summit of spiritual perfection:
that’s who I call a brahmin.

Should be no more interaction as DO chain has been broken.Mahabrahma wrote: ↑Wed Oct 28, 2020 10:14 am What interaction is there with name and form once the five aggrigates are extinguished, "blown-out" in Nibbana?

contact & attention
name-and-form is the cause and condition for the manifestation of the consciousness aggregate - SN 22.82

And viceversa.
«He does not construct even the subtlest apperception with regard
to what is seen, heard or thought; how would one conceptualise
that Brahmin in this world, who does not appropriate a view?
They do not fabricate, they do not prefer, they do not accept any
doctrine; the Brahmin cannot be inferred through virtue or vows,
such a person has gone to the far shore and does not fall back.»

Re: What is the difference between five aggregate and Nama-rupa?
They're the same, the key thing to understand is that intention = sankhara as intention is the nutriment for consciousness. The path is removing activity and intention until you can see the cause of ignorance (3 poisons), remove the ignorance, and then you can have intention without ignorance. Anapanasati is how one tranquilizes activity.
https://suttacentral.net/sn12.38/en/bodhihikkhus, what one intends, and what one plans, and whatever one has a tendency towards: this becomes a basis for the maintenance of consciousness. When there is a basis there is a support for the establishing of consciousness. When consciousness is established and has come to growth, there is the production of future renewed existence. When there is the production of future renewed existence, future birth, aging-and-death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, displeasure, and despair come to be. Such is the origin of this whole mass of suffering.
https://suttacentral.net/an4.171/en/sujato“Mendicants, as long as there’s a body, the intention that gives rise to bodily action causes pleasure and pain to arise in oneself. As long as there’s a voice, the intention that gives rise to verbal action causes pleasure and pain to arise in oneself. As long as there’s a mind, the intention that gives rise to mental action causes pleasure and pain to arise in oneself. But these only apply when conditioned by ignorance.
By oneself one makes the choice that gives rise to bodily, verbal, and mental action, conditioned by which that pleasure and pain arise in oneself. Or else others make the choice … One consciously makes the choice … Or else one unconsciously makes the choice …
https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitak ... .than.html"Monks, intention for forms is inconstant, changeable, alterable. Intention for sounds... Intention for smells... Intention for tastes... Intention for tactile sensations... Intention for ideas is inconstant, changeable, alterable.
https://suttacentral.net/sn22.57/en/bodhi“And what, bhikkhus, are volitional formations? There are these six classes of volition: volition regarding forms … volition regarding mental phenomena. This is called volitional formations. With the arising of contact there is the arising of volitional formations. With the cessation of contact there is the cessation of volitional formations. This Noble Eightfold Path is the way leading to the cessation of volitional formations; that is, right view … right concentration.

A way of understanding them is:
- there's no difference; just the same.

It appears that the Five Aggregate explains the total being.
However, Nama-rupa is only a fraction of the Dependent Origination.
It seems Nama-rupa is a subset of Five Aggregate.

Re: What is the difference between five aggregate and Nama-rupa?
No. Nāmarūpaṃ hetu in SN 22.82 may not necessarily mean nāmarūpaṃ pacaya in SN 12.65 & 67.
No.

Re: What is the difference between five aggregate and Nama-rupa?
I think it does, the context is the same (DO).

Re: What is the difference between five aggregate and Nama-rupa?
Sorry but it appears not. The Pali word "hetu" is not necessarily a synonym for the word "paccaya". This has been discussed often; including recently by Assaji, here.

I didn't say that they are synonyms, but that the context is the same. Not DO in its common formulation, but still DO in broad sense.DooDoot wrote: ↑Wed Oct 28, 2020 10:03 pmSorry but it appears not.

Cause and condition, you too used them together in your first reply, and in that discussion you also say:

The above appears to be blasphemy. The Buddha did not use the word "hetu" in dependent origination.AlexBrains92 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 28, 2020 10:11 pm I didn't say that they are synonyms, but that the context is the same.

What is the Uncreated?
Sublime & free, what is that obscured Eternity?
It is the Undying, the Bright, the Isle.
It is an Ocean, a Secret: Reality.
Both life and oblivion, it is Nirvāṇa.
