‘Sattvic
(partaking of the quality of light, purity, harmony, and goodness) tendencies
can be activated in one’s life by listening to sattvic Shastras like the
Puranas, partaking of Sattvic food and following in the footsteps of saints
When
Tamasic (partaking of the quality of dullness, inertia, folly, and desire for
an object or goal) tendencies preponderate in one’s life, one becomes
distressed, restless, agitated and sick. Possessed of all kinds of assets, one
remains impoverished. When Sattva Guna is ascendant, one is covered with glory
whether or not one is possessed of wealth.
‘Sattva
Guna brings knowledge of Ultimate Truth.’
‘Purity in
what you ingest enhances Sattva Guna.’
The Palate
ingests food; the eyes ingest sight; the ears ingest sound; the nostrils ingest
smell; and the skin ingests touch. If you want to touch, touch of lord’s feet;
touch the flowers offered to the lord to your eyes. Likewise behold only the
Lord’s idol or image or else behold the lord’s in whatever you see. If you want
to speak, speak only about the Lord. Listen only about the lord. The Panchdashi
says ‘Think only about Him’; speak only about him; This is the quickest way to
God – Realization and Deliverance from the sansara..
