Mind is also a substance of age. If the mind is contaminated with the above mentioned Raja and Tama, the loss of mental balance also affects the senses and the body. Even when the body and senses are healthy, life gets reduced due to mental disorders in human life. For its treatment, due to the mind being dependent on the body, mental treatment like knowledge, science, restraint, mental samadhi, harmana, assurance etc. along with physical purification etc. should be done. The mind should avoid irritating diet etc. and should get treatment from mental experts. Senses - These are considered physical in Ayurveda. They are body dependent and controlled. Therefore, their diseases are treated on the basis of body and mind only. The soul has already been described as viceless. When there is a disorder in its means (mind and senses) and base (body), we only feel the disorder in the controlling soul of all these. But as a result of the inauspicious deeds done earlier, the soul should also be saved from the disease of birth in various species etc. To purify the mind, its main tools, satsangati, knowledge, renunciation, religious contemplation, fasting, fasting etc. Due to these and the creation of Smriti (knowledge of essence) through the practice of Yoga like Yama-Niyama etc., one attains salvation through renunciation of karma. This is called nautical medicine. Because the world is dual, where there is happiness there is also sorrow, hence ultimate happiness is achieved only when one is free from conflict and that is called salvation.
