The ways of the three gunas are now explained
The Symptoms of the Gunas 11-18
1 Gita Sloka Every Day - Chapter 14 - Gunatraya Vibhaga Yoga - Sloka 17
Sattvat samnjayate gyanam rajasah lobah eva cha I
Pramada mohau tamasah bhavatah agyanam eva cha II sloka 17
सत्त्वात् संन्जायते ज्ञानं राजसः लोभः एव च I
प्रमाद मोहौ तमसः भवतः अज्ञानं एव च II श्लोक 17
From sattva arises wisdom and greed from rajas; heedlessness and error arise from tamas and also ignorance.
What is mentioned in this sloka is the truth about the gunas. Man should therefore endeavour to subdue the base gunas in him and rise high above it.
