Mind is the link between ''atman'' (soul), ''indriya'' and ''sharira'' (senses and body). It is responsible for the ''pravritti'' (indulgence) and ''nivrtti'' (non -indulgence) in health promoting and health-degrading activities (''shubha'' or ''ashubha karmas'') because thinking is the object of ''manas''. ''Samayoga'' (proper association) of these leads to fruitful results and ''atiyoga'' (excessive correlation), ''hinayoga'' (deficient/no correlation) and ''mithyayoga'' (perverted correlation) leads to dreadful consequences. The ''sattvajaya'' treatments (restraining senses from harmful objects by controlling mind) form important component for psychiatric and psycho-somatic disorders. | Mind is the link between ''atman'' (soul), ''indriya'' and ''sharira'' (senses and body).
