Bhagavad Gita 14.15
Sanskrit
रजसि प्रलयं गत्वा कर्मसङ्गिषु जायते।तथा प्रलीनस्तमसि मूढयोनिषु जायते।।14.15।।
Transliteration
rajasi pralayaṁ gatvā karma-saṅgiṣhu jāyate tathā pralīnas tamasi mūḍha-yoniṣhu jāyate
Word by Word
When the rajas guna dominates at the moment of death, the soul carries its restless attachment to action into new birth among those bound by endless work and ambition. Similarly, when tamas clouds the consciousness at life's end, rebirth occurs in confused forms—animal bodies stripped of discrimination.
The guna that colors your final thought becomes the seed of your next life. This is not punishment but the natural law of consciousness: you become what you deeply identify with, so examine today what you are truly becoming through your choices.
