According to Ayurveda, knowledge of external objects is processed through sense organs , to the mind- intellect, culminating in the spirit. This chain or sequence for attainment of knowledge is important for proper functioning of memory (encoding, storage and retrieval) and intellect (cognition) [Fig.2]. Occasional impairment of coordination in the sequence consisting of sense organs-intellect-mind-spirit is seen in apasmara. This may lead to decrease in cognitive performance of an individual. | According to Ayurveda, knowledge of external objects is processed through sense organs , to the mind- intellect, culminating in the spirit.
