In this audio, Poojya Swamiji discusses the analysis of the three Gunas in Srimad Bhagavatam and Bhagavad Gita.

The scriptures have done a very incisive analysis of our personality. They discuss the effect of each Guna on the human mind and intelligence. A seeker has to understand which Guna is predominant in his own personality. He must strive to outlive the Rajasic and Tamasic predominance and cultivate more and more Saatvic traits.

Shlokas chanted in the audio:

प्रारभ्यते न खलु विघ्नभयेन नीचैः
प्रारभ्य विघ्नविहता विरमन्ति मध्याः ।
विघ्नैः पुनः पुनरपि प्रतिहन्यमानाः
प्रारब्धमुत्तमजना न परित्यजन्ति ॥

Neeti Shatakam 27)

सत्त्वात्सञ्जायते ज्ञानं

(Bhagavad Gita 14.17)
