| The thing that
drives us to go to meetings, do a yatra and write books are all the properties of
Rajoguna. The tamoguna is essential as well because this is what brings us to rest. What
is paramount is the balance. The balance is in part the property of the Satwaguna. Satwaguna alone sometimes is not so effective. Budha’s teachings for example were from the properties of Satwaguna. For these teachings to become propoga- ted the energy of Rajoguna is needed. And,that happened when a king likeAshoka got influenced. He used the methods of a king (Rajoguna) to propagate Budhism as is known today. All in all none of the three gunas are initself good or bad; they have their own utility and their own importance.All these three gunas are represented in different proportions in different individuals. We have just made a preliminary introduction to the topic of gunas here mainly to impress on the fact that there is prakriti behind any karma that a person does. One who becomes aware of this property of prakriti also understands the basics of the Nishkam Karma. |
