Remembering (Skt. स्मरण, Smarana) is the process of recalling past experiences from memory.

Also used for abiding or remembrance.

On the path of knowledge, remembering is:

• The retrieval of patterns from memory

• Not an accurate reproduction of the past but a reconstruction

• Part of the illusion of time

• Subject to distortion and modification

The experiencer does not need to remember - it is always present. Remembering belongs to the mind.
