As the Universe is constituted by the three
attributes or Gunas (Satwa,
Rajas and Tamas) and is permeated by
them, the first stage in spiritual practice is to put an end
to the Tamo Guna, which is characterised by foolish
obstinacy (moorkatwa). When filled with inertia of
this guna, the person exhibits dull intelligence and is
inclined to indulge in meaningless questioning and
argumentativeness. Instead, study every issue deeply and
then draw conclusions. Only then your experience will be
rewarding. The Tamasic person is incapable of perceiving the
truth and cannot realise the Divine. Such a person will be
caught in the endless cycle of birth and death. Avoid
endless verbal debate over every trivial matter. Such
controversies result in only provoking bitterness, instead
of harmony. It will not serve you to realise the
truth.
