Understanding Ayurveda perspective and its treatment

Ayurveda believes that there are three parts of memory.

  1. Dhee: Short term memory that is grasping power. The person with a greater dhee can learn things quickly.
  2. Dhriti: Long term memory that is retention power. A person with a greater dhriti can retain the learnt things for a longer time.
  3. Samriti: To recall the learnt things when required.

    4. It is the proper coordination of these three that is required for proper intellectual capabilities. If there is a problem in any one of these at the birth itself, the child will have some or the other intellectual incapability, and if it's later in life, then one or more of these aspects of memory get disturbed and the incapability can develop at later stages of life.
