Satwa, Raja, Tama are three main properties of mind. Out of these, Satwa is a Guna and Raja and Tama are described as Manodosha. i.e. they are bad properties when get dominant. These Raja and Tama properties lead to Mano Vikar that are: Kama, krodha, Lobha, Moha, Shoka, Harsha, Chinta, Udwega, Bhaya etc.1
Function of Mana or Mind explained in 5 catagories. Chintya, Vicharya, Oohyam, Dhyeyam, Sankalp.In Charak Samhita Sutrasthana- Tisrishaniya adhyay, we get very precise description of Manas hetu or cause of stress.2
It is hard to dispute that most of us live at very fast speed. Stress is a feeling that is created when one reacts to an event. It is a body’s way of rising to a challenge and preparing to meet a tough situation with focus, strength and stamina. Such an event that provokes stress is known as stressor
