Shloka : 17 / 27

Based on this Bhagavad Gita verse, individuals born under the Virgo Rasi will have a predominance of Sattva quality. The Ashlesha Nakshatra provides them with clear thinking. Mercury [Budha] enhances their intellect. This Sattva quality aids them in gaining benefits in their profession, maintaining good relationships in the family, and living a healthy life. In their profession, they should act wisely and justly. In the family, Sattva helps bring love and understanding. Health improves with good eating habits and mental peace. By controlling the greed arising from Rajas and avoiding the lethargy caused by Tamas, they can achieve progress in all areas of life. Thus, individuals with Virgo Rasi and Ashlesha Nakshatra can enhance Sattva quality and achieve good progress in life.

In this verse, Lord Krishna describes the three fundamental qualities: Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. The Sattva quality brings goodness and knowledge. The Rajas quality creates great desire and urgency. The Tamas quality leads to ignorance and negligence. These are significant factors that shape human thoughts, actions, and life. All three qualities are essential aspects of humanity. When Sattva increases, a person becomes wise and loving. When Rajas dominates, there come more desires and attachments. When Tamas is prevalent, lethargy and laziness arise.

According to Vedanta, the three qualities are natural aspects of the universe. Sattva creates brilliant knowledge, drawing one towards spiritual enlightenment. Rajas, by generating desires and great longing, enslaves a person to worldly attachments. Tamas leads to an ordinary state through ignorance and illusion. The truth of life lies in the balance of these three qualities. When Sattva increases, a person achieves spiritual progress. When Rajas increases, one seeks worldly success. When Tamas increases, one experiences a hellish state. All three are interconnected; they must be maintained in balance with one another.

In today's life, we can observe how these three qualities play out. For family welfare, Sattva brings love and understanding, helping to foster good relationships among family members. In terms of career and finances, when Rajas is active, new opportunities and growth arise, but one must control greed. For longevity, the Sattva quality encourages healthy eating habits. In parental responsibilities, Sattva serves as a good guide for children. To reduce debt and EMI pressure, one must control the greed associated with Rajas. Social media can amplify Rajas; therefore, it should be used moderately. Health improves through good eating habits and genuine actions. To create long-term thoughts, Sattva and Rajas qualities must be kept in balance. By understanding the qualities of nature and bringing them into balance in our lives, we can establish a good life.
