All voluntary and involuntary body movements, including natural physiological impulses (somatic & psychosomatic), are executed by neural pathways. These activities with cranial nerve impulses are outcomes of activities of [[vata]]. Respiratory functions, cardiac and circulatory activities are invariably done by [[vata]]. All somatic systems and their regulatory functions and integration are governed or maintained by [[vata]].[ Cha. Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 12/ 8] It also controls and regulates the activities of the mind ([[manas]]). [ Cha. Sa.

The physiology of [[vata]] cannot be limited to neurophysiology. Instead, it can be extended to molecular biology in addition to the neuronal or cellular functions. | The physiology of [[vata]] cannot be limited to neurophysiology.
