(In matters other than AthmA) One who has crossed the three qualities, does not hate clear knowledge (which is an effect of sathva guNam), efforts (which is an effect of rajO guNam) and bewilderment (which is an effect of thamO guNam) which he obtains (unintentionally, or as a means). He does not desire for that which separates from him (intentionally or as a means).<\/p>\n ‘He (the man who has crossed the qualities) is one, P\u0101ndava! who is exempt from hate, when lucidity, activity and folly prevail; who, when they prevail not, desires them not.’<\/span><\/p>\n Prak\u0101\u015ba<\/em>=lucidity, or brightness of disposition, the effect of Satvam.<\/span><\/p>\n Prav\u1e5bitti<\/em>= Effort or activity or the disposition to engage in active work, is the effect of Rajas.<\/span><\/p>\n Moha<\/em>=Folly or infatuation or having a distorted disposition, is the effect of Tamas.<\/span><\/p>\n Things external to \u0101tma are of a two-fold character, the one which men desire to have; the other which they hatefully shun. (The sign by which one may understand that he is above the qualities is that of his) not feeling a hatred when lucidity etc., may be found to be prevailing regarding things unwished for, and not feeling a longing when they (lucidity etc.,) may be found to be not prevailing regarding things wished for.[1. Editor’s addition from THE GITA BHASHYA OF RAMANUJA (1969) by Sri. M.R.Sampatkumaran, M.A.: He who does not hate the effects of the sattva, the rajas and tamas, known as illumination, activity and delusion, when functioning in regard to things other than the self which are undesirable; nor desires the same things when they have stopped functioning in regard to things other than the self which are desirable.<\/em>]<\/span><\/p>\n >> Chapter 14 verse 23<\/a><\/p>\n archived in https:\/\/githa.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n pramEyam (goal) \u2013 http:\/\/koyil.org<\/a> SrI:\u00a0 SrImathE SatakOpAya nama:\u00a0 SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama:\u00a0 SrImath varavaramunayE nama: Chapter 14 << Chapter 14 verse 21 SlOkam \u2013 Original SrI bhagavAn uvAcha prakASam cha pravruththim cha mOham Eva cha pANdava | na dhvEshti sampravruththAni na niv\u1e5buththAni kAnkshathi || word-by-word meaning SrI bhagavAn uvAcha – SrI bhagavAn spoke pANdava – Oh son of pANdu!
