Discussion 1) Bhaya is one of Manasika Vikara. In the manifestation of Bhaya, both Vata and Manas play an important role. As Vata and Manas are interdependent, so if one gets vitiated it also affects other adversely. 2) Acharya Charaka advices Ashwasana and Harshana Chikitsa for the Mnanagement of the Bhaya. So for this study Satvavajaya Chikitsa was given to 30 students who were suffering from the Fear of the Examinations
