| − | Mentally, Pitta governs reason, intelligence and understanding - the illuminating capacity of the mind. It allows the mind to perceive, judge and discriminate. Anger is its main emotional disturbance, which is fiery, increasing heat within and helps to defend from external attacks. Hence people with Pitta predominance while having good intelligence and discrimination may become opinionated or self-righteous and are prone to anger, which is their main reaction to new or unexpected events. | + | Mentally, Pitta governs reason, intelligence and understanding - the illuminating capacity of the mind.
