CHAPTER 14

Division of The Three Properties

सत्त्वं सुखे संजयति रज: कर्मणि भारत।
ज्ञानमावृत्य तु तम: प्रमादे संजयत्युत ॥9॥

[ “Whereas the property of sattwa motivates one to joy, rajas prompts to action, and tamas veils knowledge and drives one to carelessness.’’ ]

While sattwa leads one to ultimate bliss and rajas to action, tamas tempts the mind and heart to futile endeavours. However, when the properties are confined to one place and to one heart, how are they divided from each other? According to Krishn:
