In this Bhagavad Gita verse, Lord Krishna explains the impact of the three qualities of nature. Individuals born under the Capricorn Rasi generally embody the influence of Saturn, making them hardworking and responsible. Those born under the Uttirashada Nakshatra are keen on improving their career and financial status. The Saturn planet ensures steady growth in their lives. In the fields of career and finance, individuals with Capricorn Rasi and Uttirashada Nakshatra should enhance their Sattva quality while balancing Tamas and Rajas qualities. In family life, they must act with a sense of responsibility. The influence of Saturn transforms them into responsible individuals, but at the same time, they must allocate time for their families. Those with complete knowledge, understanding the qualities of nature, will improve their career and financial status while engaging in family welfare. Thus, by applying the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita, they can significantly transform their lives.

In this verse, Lord Krishna explains how the qualities of nature influence human actions. All humans are governed by the three qualities of nature: Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. These qualities determine their actions. Those with lesser knowledge generally get caught up in actions influenced by these qualities. Their actions may often be unjust. However, the complete wise individuals, by acting with an understanding of the qualities of nature, remain unaffected by them. They engage in actions that benefit both themselves and society.

According to Vedanta, humans are determined by the three qualities of nature. These three qualities are Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. Sattva represents knowledge and peace, Rajas signifies action and energy, while Tamas denotes laziness and ignorance. Those lacking in knowledge, while under the influence of these qualities, engage in actions driven by Tamas and Rajas. But the complete wise individuals always act with the quality of Sattva. By acting with a complete understanding of their actions, they are not affected by those qualities. They engage in societal welfare and act to achieve their goals.

In today's world, the three qualities of nature reflect in our actions. Currently, many are significantly impacted by modern technology and social media. These can lead one to forget their responsibilities. As laziness and ignorance (Tamas) increase, individuals may drift away from responsibilities related to parenting, finances, and health. For family welfare and longevity, managing good dietary habits is essential. While striving for career and financial success, the Rajas quality of nature requires great energy and effort. Meanwhile, Sattva always suggests maintaining a balance, aiding in achieving long-term goals and wealth. Those with complete knowledge will understand the benefits of existence and will lead their lives positively without getting entangled in them.
