Along with these urges to express demands of physical body, Acharya Vagbhata has also mentioned few vegas that are generated to express the demands of manas which could also be identified as the psychological expressions of the body. These are the emotions and behavioral patterns in an individual. Thus forcible suppression or non-suppression of these emotions is also detrimental to health. <blockquote>धारयेत्तु सदा वेगान् हितैषी प्रेत्य चेह च। लोभेर्ष्याद्वेषमात्सर्यरागादीनां जितेन्द्रियः॥ (Asht Hrud 4.24)<ref>Ashtang Hrudayam ([http://vedotpatti.in/samhita/Vag/ehrudayam/?mod=read&h=lobher Sutrasthanam Adhyayam 4 Sutram 24])</ref></blockquote><blockquote>dhārayettu sadā vegān hitaiṣī pretya ceha ca। lobherṣyādveṣamātsaryarāgādīnāṁ jitendriyaḥ॥ (Asht Hrud 4.24)</blockquote>The emotions that are identified as vegas are as follows.
