ANATOMICAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL UNDERSTANDING OF SMRITI (MEMORY) IN PURVIEW OF AYURVEDA- A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Smriti plays an important role in the existence of an individual. In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that recollecting the things which are observed, heard and experienced is called smriti. The ability to remember and learn are among the most fundamental and significant of our brain’s abilities. Not only does the brain permit us to experience everything around us, it allows us to re-experience our past. It does this in several ways, using distinct types of memory. Learning is the process by which new experiences are acquired and integrated with previous experience. Memory is the ability to recall past events like facts, objects, people etc. It also implies the ability to recognize events or objects etc. Recognition is easier than recall. Memory is closely associated with learning. Memory is the retention and storage of the information. The brain receives various amount of information from various sense organs, but it does not have the capacity to store all the information received nor it is necessary to do so. So, most of the information received which is not of use are just suppressed, while those which are considered useful are retained as memory. Synaptic events have an important role and form a basis of learning process and memory.
