Abstract

Because of its nature, the mind is hard to grasp and almost impossible to control. It has the nature and movements of its own. Based on these facts, one can say that there is nothing more difficult to control than the mind. Thus understanding and assessing Manas (mind) is a difficult process involving many aspects. The present article highlights different approaches to Manasa Pareeksha, through Dashavidha Pareeksha, Anumana, through physiology of perception, and the Manasa Prakruti, etc. The Manas can also be accessed through the 12 factors mentioned in Bhagvatgeeta. The idea is to have different options in Manasa Pareeksha and to implement whichever type is needed to assess the condition of Manas in question.
