In the situations mentioned above, the doshas get aggravated and affect individuals whose minds are already afflicted by rajas and tamas. The doshas (so aggravated) pervade the heart which is, as mentioned earlier, the abode of consciousness, as well as the sense organs. While there, the doshas get further aggravated by emotions such as passion, anger, fear, greed, attachment, excitement, grief, anxiety, perturbation etc., consequently spreading throughout the heart and the sense organs. The individual is then said to have been afflicted with apasmara. [4]
