"मन्यु – Manyu. What does this mean? On one level, it is the ‘Mind’ and ‘Spirit’ Itself. On another, it is the ‘active expression’ of that Mind, and the raging forth of that Spirit... but the better representation – to my Mind – is as “Passion”, “Ardour” for those are the emotions to which ‘Manyu’ is most directly affixed. Anger, Wrath, Roaring Grief and Sorrow ..."
Manyu, a derivation of the same PIE article from whence comes 'man' and 'mind' has it's IE deific representation in Manyu - the ultimate War God.
Very similar concordances exist in the etymology of another - Nordic - Indo-European War God, whose name derives from PIE *weh₂t, which implies rage, turbulence, poetry and violence. (But also poetry)
The IE imagination seems to view consciousness as integrally intertwined with war.
Pushing harder is a standard part of good training. Patience at first until the basic skills are habituated, then throw the student into a job-like situation and expect quick results.
