4.nidra = sleep

5.smritayah = memory

Modifications are five-fold: misery and non-misery.Modifications are five-fold, whether they are of misery or non-misery. Some functions of the mind bring misery whereas some of them don't. For example, anger, creed, lust, etc., brings misery. Love, Kindness, wisdom don't bring misery. It depends on the attributes of the modifications. Misery is the result of the functions. Functions will result in either misery or non-misery.

Yoga sutra 1.4 states, Vritti sarupyam itaratra: When one is not in Self-realization, the Seer takes on the identity of the fluctuations of mind (thought patterns). That is, when we are wrapped up in our thoughts, unable to stay present, we become our thoughts - theyogasanctuary
