Bhagavad Gita Group Discussions - The Influence of Three Gunas in our lives

Published: Dec. 7, 2020, 2:21 a.m.

Very insightful discussion today, especially on the guna classification and the personality types:

\n

Trying to understand our natural proclivities

\n

Why we do what we do. How to move the needle, without suppression

\n

What does it mean to worship, work, do charity, do austerities in the context of the three gunas - sattva, rajas, tamas.

\n

Is Rajas bad?

\n

Understanding of mind, importance of a calm mind

\n

Importance of food for calming mind.

\n

Controversial topics like caste system and how it is referenced in Gita.

\n

We also talk about how /why alcohol can be consumed, or dropped completely with a complete understanding of the goal and the need to increase our Sattva guna.
