    Commentaries around

    “In the Indian tradition,
    stress would be the situation where a person
    exhibits the Udvega, attitudes or behaviour
    which take over a person and control him.
    The origin of the Udvega lies in the Ṣad Ūrmi,
    the six enemies.
    These six are:
    – Kāma: desire
    – Krodha: anger
    – Lobha: possessiveness, greed
    – Moha: darkness;
    though not actually dark it is as if darkness exists
    because the person is so sure of himself
    and his opinions that he is unable to see.
    – Mada: arrogance,
    the refusal to accept or give in.
    – Mātsarya: jealousy,
    to resent the success of others
    and to be happy at their failures.
    These are Āyurveda‘s Mano Roga.
    If any one of these six is dominant in a person,
    that person is sure to experience Udvega in one form or the other.”
