is the Three Gunas; Sattva - Illuminated, Rajas - Dynamic, Tamas - Stagnant. The Gunas are three qualities that permeate the universe and if we reflect on them we can move toward understanding ourselves and the world around us.

I like to remind myself that in the Bagavad Gita Krishna says we must transcend even the Gunas. Do not see Sattva as the goal, do your best to see what is beyond even your attachment to being illuminated or pure? 

You will find these qualities move in and out of your day and you will understand there is one quality you lean toward.  You can change that by reminding yourself to let go and move into the highest state of your own mind inhale to exhale.
