The Divine Modes of Nature

In our previous article we discussed how  Transgression of laws of nature will lead to our Bondage of Existence. Now let us try to understand this scientifically.
It has been scientifically proved that different kinds of Energies exist around us. For instance say the Electromagnetic energy, Scientists have developed several devices which has the Potential to access the energy and provide several applications.
As per the scientific Definition Energy is the Ability to do work. It influences an object to work.
Now as per the information we get from the Bhagavad Gita there are 3 subtle energies around us, namely,
Sattva, Rajas and Tamas.
When one is influenced by Tamas he engages in laziness, Sleep. When one is influenced by Rajas, he becomes very materially passionate, Develops too much material affection, attachment. When one is influenced by Sattva, he is self satisfied, peaceful, engages in cultivation of Spiritual knowledge(atma jnana).controls his senses etc.
Everyday we get influenced under these respective energies and accordingly engage in its action.
The Vedic Literatures has systematically prescribed us certain duties(actions) which when followed will enable us float and rise above the influence of Rajas and Tamas, nurture sattva which is very much  essential if one needs to be spiritually successful and for the establishment of peace all over the world.
