Pranam The ten commandments is a guideline that may not fit all. Quora is a shaded group writing 20% good and 80% mixture of unproven facts. Human nature is defined under the many dharmasastras as well as under the ayurvedam. Guna karma divisions do exist. In that light the ten commandments do become an utopia. "TYPES OF HUMAN NATURE
Medical man undertook studies on human nature in terms of two main habits – the phthisis and apoplectic – or in terms of four humors, i.e. food, phlegm, black bile and yellow bile. Indian medical classification categorizes men according to the preponderance of *vayu* (mind), *pitta* (bile), and *kapha* (phlegm). The subsequent classification systems of Dr. Kretshmer and Dr. W Sheldon are equally comprehensive. The Dharma Sastra has given a psycho-sociological scheme of classification in order to establish the fourfold social structure (*catuvana*) on the *sattva, rajas*, and *tamas*. Under the distinctive principle laws, *karma* and heredity are the determining factors in the development of human nature, Caraka: The exponent of the Ayurveda system of medicine has analyzed the human constitution as a mind-body complex, with a view to discovering the etiology of bodily and mental diseases and their remedies. Caraka's classification A) 1. *Brahmasattva* type - Highly intellectual and moral 2. *Aryasattva* type - Endowed with care perception 3. *Aindrasattva* type - Energetic powerful 4. *Yamyasattva* type - Endowed with presence of mind 5. *Varunassattva* type - Calm but courageous 6. *Kauberasattva* type - Fond of family life 7. *Gandharvasattva* type - Fond of music B) Following are named after demonic and aggressive animal species in which the element of *rajas* predominates: 1. *Asurasattva* type - Characterized by physical prowess 2. *Raksasa* type - Marked by enduring wealth, aggressively cruel 3. *Paisava* type - Cowardly 4. *Sarpa* - Heroic in anger 5. *Praithya* - Loving food 6. *Sakura* - Given to sensuous desires C) The following are named after lower animals, vegetation. These are the classes wherein the element of *tamas* predominates. 1. *Pasavasattva* type - Dirty in dress 2. *Matsyasattva* type - Given to anger 3. *Vanaspatya* type - Living a purely vegetative life Classification of human nature in Bhagavad Gita is based on the main faculties of human mind: thinking, will, feeling (knowledge, devotion and action). They are being conceived as the *margas* or ways of life. The individuals in whom will prevails take to *karma yoga. Bhakti marga* pursues the path of devotion. The Gita attempts another classification of man's nature according to his *sraddga* (preponderant desire), *sattviki, rajasiki* or *tamasiki* resulting from the dominating influence of the fundamental constituting components of *sattva, rajas* or *tamas* in life of desire. THERAPEUTIC ASPECTS OF INDIAN CULTURAL TRADITIONS Indian cultural traditions call it religious rituals or customary traditions. All of them are nicely woven into the system providing cushioning impact. The supportive or reassuring aspect of Indian psychological intervention is built in within the network of relationships. The nurturant aspect of relationships is the most unique part of Indian culture. The significant word in the therapy is “arise” (*uthishthe*). This arousal is from their areas of inactivity, from ignorance to knowledge, from apathy to a positive feeling and from inertia to purposeful activity. Gita brings out the ingredients of the relationship so well that Krishna considers his pupil as a friend capable of intelligent interrogation and exercising the power of discrimination. There is on the part of Arjuna, a total sense of surrender and readiness to be instructed and to be told what is to be done. The master and the pupil in Gita display what is extremely necessary for a rapport. The counseling on the battle field was akin to crisis intervention and a noteworthy brief intervention. The immense potentiality in resources of human mind is brought about in the discourse on the battle field. These parameters indicate Gita as a masterpiece of psychotherapy touching upon every aspect of mental activity. Nasto Mohan Smritit Labdha tvatprasadhanmayacyuta Sthitosrigatsamsehah Karisyecacnamtava “My delusion is destroyed. I have regained my memory through your grace Achyuta. I am firm. I am free from doubt. I shall act according to your word.” These psychotherapeutic traditions provided a global framework of physical psychological and spiritual health. The rescue from *teen jap-addhi, uyaadhi* and *upaadhi* was the goal of these traditions.
