164. Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 14, Verse 6 I Swami Sarvapriyananda

विवरण

Taught by Swami Sarvapriyananda, this episode is part of a series of talks that unfold the highest truths of Vedanta through the study of the Bhagavad Gita, "The Song of God". In this episode, Swami Sarvapriyananda teaches chapter 14, verse 6 of the Bhagavad Gita. Chapter 14 is devoted to an understanding of the Gunatreya Vibhaga Yoga, or the three qualities/components of Maya. The entire universe is created by a projection of the three gunas - satva, rajas, and tamas. Understanding the science of the three gunas and how we can apply it to our lives is the focus of Chapter 14. Verse 6 addresses the satva component of Maya. Swami Sarvapriyananda explains this in this episode.____________Bhagavad Gita | Chapter 14, Verse 6 | Swami Sarvapriyanandaतत्र सत्त्वं निर्मलत्वात्प्रकाशकमनामयम् |सुखसङ्गेन बध्नाति ज्ञानसङ्गेन चानघ || 6||tatra sattvaṁ nirmalatvāt prakāśhakam anāmayamsukha-saṅgena badhnāti jñāna-saṅgena chānagha⧫ Of these, Satva, on account of its stainlessness, is luminous and free from evil. Oh sinless one [Arjuna], it binds the embodied self by attachment to happiness and, by attachment to knowledge.
