Sai Baba Gita - To Become Free - Surrender your Mind to God

XXX. To Become Free - Surrender your Mind to God

The entire world is made up of three qualities. These qualities constitute

illusion. They can be spoken of as density or inertia, action or reaction, and

balance or harmony. Although their effects are very different, all three

qualities befog your understanding. As long as these qualities reside in your

heart you will remain in bondage.

 

Embodiments of Love,

Among the three qualities enumerated above, the first two, namely inertia and

excessive activity, are responsible for all the sorrows, grief, troubles and

problems that you experience. Whenever torpor, laziness, drowsiness or

sleepiness manifest, or whenever unconscionable fear or rage or hatred take

hold of you, then you are overwhelmed by the quality of inertia or density,

which in Sanskrit is called tamas. Whenever strong desires, frenzied

activities, impatience, passion, emotional and self interested actions of all

kinds predominate, then the second quality, which in Sanskrit is called rajas,

holds sway over you. When these two qualities are in control, your real human

nature is forgotten. They bring out the animal nature and the demonic nature in

human beings. Therefore, to begin with, these two qualities of tamas and rajas

will have to be expunged from you.
