Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 17 verse 7

 Chapter 17 verse 7 

“The food persons prefer is according to their dispositions. The same is true for the sacrifice, austerity, and charity they incline toward. Now hear of the distinctions from me.” 

Observation in nature according to sanatana dharma leads to understanding that several characteristics in nature are three fold. Sattvic, Rajasic and Tamasic are the three fold dispositions. We just learnt about the three varieties of faith in beings. The foods we consume also affects our body, mind, intellect and ego instruments and are three fold as well. So is all so called religious actions such as sacrifice, austerity and charity. Bhagwan is  about to enumerate these 3 fold traits.
