There are 7 jhana factors, not 5. SN 54.2: 7sb☀️ together with 16APS🌬️😤

Notice that 7sb☀️ works as asyncronous, independent jhana factors that are present while one is in all four jhanas, or trying to attain jhanas doing 4sp satipatthana practice. 
In this sutta, the basic 7sb☀️ formula, is combined with the instructions for 16APS🌬️😤 .  This is meant to be recited regularly and reflected upon. The same formula is applied to all the meditation subjects in SN 46. 

SN 46 twenty meditation subjects

It's heavily elided in most translations, but basically it's this same sutta as SN 54.2, but you plug in the different meditation subject where "apanasati sahagatam" appears in this one.
