#Basic open questions. *What is the relationship between the Gunas and the Kosas? If there is a direct correspondance what is it? *Are the samskaras stored in the Citta as other memories?

Or are they in fact "lessons" that we need to learn, wherein the reaction will repeat until we can experience it with detachement? *What is the fundamental difference between associative memory and thought, and linear structures? Is it at the level of memory? or during the composition, remembering process? *How does the hypothetical distinction of cortical and limbic sleep relate to the clinical cycle of deep sleep, and dream sleep? *Do I understand correctly that core pictures are the same as inborn samskaras? If they cannot be removed from another how does MT work on them? How do we work on them? *
