What we note from the Chart is how the process entailed in the
bojjhanga begins with a strong cognitive element (ll. 1-2, col. 1),
moving between praxis and affection (ll. 3-6), and ending up in
cognition. But it is even more complex than this. While
“Mindfulness”26 (sati) is clearly in the cognitive domain (col. 2), it also
appears in the affective (col. 3). “Dhamma investigation” (Dhamma
vicaya), as the term “investigation” suggests, is cognitive. What is
meant here is any and all reality, as discovered by oneself thus far and/or
as taught by the Buddha, in relation to one’s own mind.
