SHRIMAD BHAGVAD GITA-A JAIN PERSPECTIVE
-
"When greed, activity, undertaking of worldly activities, restlessness, longing - all this arises, know that Rajas prevails. "- 12
अप्रकाशोऽप्रवृत्तिश्च प्रमादो मोह एव च । तमस्येतानि जायन्ते विवृद्ध कुरुनन्दन ॥ १३ ॥
"When Darkness, indolence, inertness, delusion arise, oh Kurv's son , know that Tamas is prevailing " - 13 यदा सत्त्वे प्रवृद्धे तु प्रलयं याति देहभृत् । तदोत्तमविदां लोकानमलान्प्रतिपद्यते ॥ १४ ॥
"If the embodied one dies while Sattva is predominant, he attains spotless world of the knowers of Highest Jnani's" रजसि प्रलयं गत्वा कर्मसङ्गिषु जायते । तथा प्रलीनस्तमसि मूढयोनिषु जायते ॥ १५ ॥ ___ "If he dies when Rajas is predominant, he gets birth among those who are attached to action and if he dies when Tamas predominates, he is born among senseless."15
