Happy Holi!!! Celebrate the true essence of Holi by coloring your mind & body with colors of love for God.
In this video of “Colors of Holi”, message of Holi 2018 – Swami Mukundananda explains a more philosophical aspect of the colors of Maya.
The Vedas say that this material energy, Maya, consists of three guṇas: sattva guṇa, or the mode of goodness, rajo guṇa, or the mode of passion, and tamo guṇa, or the mode of ignorance.
Everyone’s mind too is made from Maya, and so the three modes of Maya exist in the mind as well. Depending upon the environment and where we focus our thoughts, one of the guṇas becomes prominent and our mind takes on that quality. If sattva guṇa dominates, one becomes peaceful, contented, generous, kind, helpful and serene. When rajo guṇa gains prominence, one becomes passionate, agitated, ambitious, envious of others success, and desirous for sense pleasures. When tamo guṇa becomes prominent, one is overcome by sleep, laziness, hatred, anger, resentment, violence, and doubt.
For example, let us suppose you are sitting in your library, engaged in study. There is no worldly disturbance, and your mind has become sāttvic. After finishing your study, you sit in your drawing room and switch on the television. Seeing all the imagery makes your mind rājasic, and increases your hankering for sense pleasures. While you are watching your favorite channel, your family member comes and changes the channel to her liking. This disturbance causes tamo guṇa to develop in your mind, and you are filled with anger. In this way, the mind sways between the three guṇas, and takes on the corresponding qualities.
This fluctuation takes place constantly in everyone’s minds, altering their thoughts amongst the three modes.
However only by taking your mind in Godly domain , through chanting names of God, meditating upon God, hearing pastimes of God & knowledge of the scriptures from Saints, serving God & Guru ..one can rise above these 3 modes of Maya & can get eternally liberated.
