Word by Word
The eternal Self, though pure and untouched, appears to inhabit the body and becomes entangled in nature's three gunas—sattva, rajas, and tamas. This attachment to the modes of nature is the invisible thread that binds the soul to cycles of high and low births, superior and inferior wombs.
When you recognize that your suffering comes not from who you are, but from what you're clinging to, freedom becomes possible in this very moment.
