Purifying Consciousness - Prabhupada 0030



741230 - Lecture SB 03.26.21 - Bombay

We have to purify the consciousness. Then we shall be without any touch of this so-called distress and happiness. That is prescribed here, yat tat sattva-guṇaṁ svaccham. Here there is little happiness in the sattva-guṇa. But still, that sattva-guṇa can be contaminated by rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa. Rajo-guṇa, tamo-guṇa—directly distress. And sattva-guṇa, there is little taste of happiness, but that is not complete happiness. The complete happiness is that sattva-guṇa without any touch of rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa. That is transcendental.
