Sparśa (Sanskrit) or Phassa (Pāli) is a Buddhist term meaning "contact" or "touching".

Synonyms:

  • 觸 or 触 Cn: chù; Jp: soku; Vi: xúc
  • Tibetan: reg.pa

Sparśa refers to the contact between the sense, sense-objects, and sense-consciousness for example, between eye, light and awareness of vision.

Sparśa is the sixth of the Twelve Nidānas. It is conditioned by the presence of the six sense-openings ṣaḍāyatana, and in turn is a condition for the arising of physical sensations (vedanā).
