The forbearance of mind is based upon intellect (''dhi'') and pure quality of mind (''sattva''). ''Dhi'' discriminates between right and wrong things. ''Sattva'' is pure quality that might be named as “mental immunity” which protects mind in all adverse conditions. In ''apasmara'', both the intellect and pure quality of mind are afflicted leading to poor forbearance. | The forbearance of mind is based upon intellect (''dhi'') and pure quality of mind (''sattva'').
