Chapter 18 verse 28
“A performer in the mode of ignorance is one who is undisciplined, vulgar, stubborn, deceitful, slothful, despondent, and procrastinating.”
I
have always associated mode of ignorance or tāmasic nature as laziness or
slothfulness only. Bhagwan’s description elaborates on such persons who exhibit
ignorance of the immutable nature of the spirit or infinite possibility each of
us possess. In addition to pure laziness, people who are not disciplined with
their body, mind and time, transcending the limits of decency and societal
norms while being vulgar, stubborn, deceitful and desperate are also considered
as persons acting in the mode of ignorance.
