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 Sarvapriyananda तत्र सत्त्वं निर्मलत्वात्प्रकाशकमनामयम् | सुखसङ्गेन बध्नाति ज्ञानसङ्गेन चानघ || 6|| tatra sattvaṁ nirmalatvāt prakāśhakam anāmayam sukha-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. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/bhagavad-gita-swami-sarvapriyananda-7175533/episodes/164-bhagavad-gita-chapter-14-verse-6-i-swami-sarvapriyananda/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/bhagavad-gita-swami-sarvapriyananda-7175533/164-bhagavad-gita-chapter-14-verse-6-i-swami-sarvapriyananda.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
