Abstract

In Ayurveda, the concept of Mana (mind) is not merely psychological but fundamentally physiological. It serves as the bridge between the Atma (soul) and the Indriyas (senses). This review explores the Kriyasharir (physiological) aspects of Mana, including its origin, location, properties, and its pivotal role in Gyanotpatti (the process of perception). Understanding Mana is essential for a holistic grasp of human physiology and the maintenance of health.
