Abstract

Manas, or mind is defined as a conglomeration of thoughts which respond to the input from the sense organs. The mind is our mental and emotional storehouse, which is governed by likes and dislikes, and which directs our actions [1]. The mind is an internal instrument (antaùkaraëa) and has four functional aspects: manas (perception), buddhi (intellect), citta (memory) and ahaìkära (ego, or I-sense) [2]
