Lord Atreya replied, “The source of attachment are ignorance, desire, hatred and purposeful action. This in turns give rise to ''ahamkara'' (ego), ''sanga'' (attachment), ''samshaya'' (skepticism), ''abhisamplava'' (mistaken self-identity), ''abhyavapata'' (false sense of ownership), ''vipratyaya'' (sensing opposite of reality), ''avishesha'' (inability to distinguish between consciousness/unconsciousness) and ''anupaya'' (believing in outdated traditions) that engulf an individual just like the very long branches of a big tree smother a sapling. A person overwhelmed by these emotions stays trapped in the affairs of the world.

A person overwhelmed by these emotions stays trapped in the affairs of the world.

''Ahamkara'' means egoism. E.g., "I belong to a high descent and possess beauty, wealth, conduct, intelligence, character, modesty, learning, fame, age, power and influence."

''Avishesha'', or the lack of distinction between a consciousness and unconsciousness, nature and its modifications, attachment and detachment.

''Anupaya'', or inefficient religious rituals such as ''prokshana'' (consecration), ''anashana'' (fasting), ''agnihotra'' (oblation to the fire), ''trishavana'' (worship with ''soma'' thrice a day while performing sacrifice), ''abhyukshana'' (wetting), ''aavahana'' (invocation), ''yajana'' (leading or guiding sacrificial rituals), ''yajna'' (sacrificial rituals), ''yachana'' (begging) and entering into water and fire.

(Though these means are listed in good code of conduct, these can create attachments to life and desires. Therefore these means are inefficient in attaining liberation.)

Thus, if a person is devoid of intellect, restraint and memory, but is egoistic, skeptic, self-centered, is attached (to objects or actions), and is unable to discern between good or bad, self and the physical body, etc. he is an abode of all miseries. Such feelings are the root cause of vitiation of ''[[dosha]]s'' relating to the mind and body. Such a person is trapped in the cycle of life and death and cannot attain salvation (from miseries). The ultimate goal of [[Ayurveda]] is salvation from all sorts of miseries which depends upon the wellbeing of the ''[[purusha]]'' - individually as well as socially. [10]
