Synopsis Everything that happens in this universe is because of the following three natures: Satvik nature is the vision of equality and selfless duties. Tamasik nature is ignorance and madness. Rajasik nature is the never-ending desire and greed. Krishna explains the influences of these three natures on us and how our behavior depends on the above characters. He also describes these natures as bonds between the soul and the body. The body and the mind follow the character and act accordingly.
