5. "The mind charged with reminiscences attracted to the objects and tossed hither and thither by the gunas, modified by passions, and, being the prominent factor of the sixteen that constitute the Linga deha, puts on different forms under different names and gives rise to a higher or a lower life in the various corporeal, gross existences.
