Description
Episode 63 of podcast "BG - Yah pashyati sa pashyati" - One who sees that person sees. With BhagavAn's blessings, having finished thirteen chapters, Episode 63 starts chapter fourteen. Bhagavan has been talking about three guNAs from the very beginning of his teachings. In chapter two, he pointed out to arjuna that vedAs have stuff other than karma kANDA rituals and it teaches something called three guNAs. Subsequently every now and then this guNA propped up in His teaching. But for the sattva guNA, he did not even introduce the other two guNAs early on. He introduced the names one by one in different chapters. The one thing that was made clear was that the three guNAs are part and parcel of the prakriti and cannot be separated from the prakriti. Finally in this chapter Bhagavan gets into the details of the three guNAs. The names of the three guNAs, how they bind us, which is the strongest one among the three, what kind of result each one produces, the qualities of a person who has crossed the three guNAs, what happens when a person crosses the three guNAs are all described in this chapter. This is not a difficult chapter to understand in one or two listens.  p.s: Entire chapters 17 and part of 18 also cover the three guNAs
