Origin & Story

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 14, Verse 27 · Sage Veda Vyasa (Mahabharata, Bhishma Parva) · Ancient (text compiled c. 5th–2nd century BCE)

In the fourteenth chapter, Gunatraya Vibhaga Yoga, Krishna describes the three gunas — sattva, rajas and tamas — that bind the soul, and the marks of one who transcends them. He teaches that such a person, by unswerving devotion, becomes fit to merge in Brahman. This concluding verse reveals that He Himself is the foundation of that immortal Brahman and of absolute, eternal bliss.

✦ As told in scripture

Realized sages who crossed beyond the three gunas through devotion are said to have come to rest in an unbroken, deathless joy — the absolute bliss that this verse declares to be founded in the Lord Himself.
