सर्वद्वारेषु देहेऽस्मिन्प्रकाश उपजायते।
ज्ञानं यदा तदा विद्याद्विवृद्धं सत्त्वमित्युत।।14.11।।
।।14.11।।जब इस मनुष्यशरीरमें सब द्वारों(इन्द्रियों और अन्तःकरण) में प्रकाश (स्वच्छता) और ज्ञान (विवेक) प्रकट हो जाता है? तब जानना चाहिये कि सत्त्वगुण बढ़ा हुआ है।
Now Lord Krishna delineates the developed characteristics of sattva guna or mode of goodness by explaining that when the five sense s no longer exercise there search for sense gratification but instead focus their attention to the experiencing the atma or immortal soul; then the light of knowledge radiates througfh them and by this manifestation it can be ascertained that sattva guna is predominant within a jiva or embodied being. Also by the signs of happiness and effulgence.
When the light of jnana or knowledge is seen to be dominate in all the channels of the body and the senses such as seeing and hearing; then an accurate perception of reality as it is naturally occurs. Lord Krishna confirms that this is indicative that sattva guna or the mode of goodness is predominant.
