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

Swami Sarvapriyananda teaches verses 6 from the fourteenth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita. This series of talks unfolds the highest truths of Vedanta through the study of "The Song of God". 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. 🙏 *Please Support the Vedanta Society of New York* http://www.vedantany.org/donate 🌐 *Please Visit Us* * Website: https://vedantany.org * Apple & Spotify Podcasts: https://www.vedantany.org/media-channels * YouTube (Main Channel): https://www.youtube.com/@VedantaNY * YouTube (Archives): https://www.youtube.com/@VedantaNYArchives * Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/VedantaNY * X / Twitter: https://twitter.com/VedantaNY 📙 *Books by Swami Sarvapriyananda* * https://www.vedantany.org/swamis-books *Lecture Series by Swami Sarvapriyananda* 📓 Introductory Lectures: https://www.vedantany.org/introductory-lectures 📚 Vedanta Scriptures: https://www.vedantany.org/by-scriptures 🧩 Lectures by Topics: https://www.vedantany.org/by-topic 💬 AskSwami Q&A: https://www.vedantany.org/ask-swami-qa 🪔 *About Vedanta* Vedanta is among the world’s oldest spiritual philosophies and one of its most inclusive.
