  1. I found this reference in the Bhagavad-Gita which is Hindu scripture from ancient India that I found quite interesting in how it relates to the 3 Kingdoms of glory; Sattva being Celestial, Rajas being Terrestial and Tamas being Telestial. Not what is our doctrine but the belief does have some striking similarities. Correspondences of the Three Gunas Color Sattva – White, purity and harmony Rajas – Red, action and passion Tamas – Black, darkness and delusion Time Sattva – Day, clarity Rajas – Sunrise and Sunset, twilight, transition Tamas – Night, darkness Energy Sattva – neutral or balanced Rajas – positive, sets things in motion Tamas – negative, retards motion Worlds Sattva – heaven or space, the region of peace Rajas – atmosphere, the region of storms Tamas – earth, the realm of gravity and inertia Levels of Cosmos Sattva – causal or ideal Rajas – subtle or astral, pure form Tamas – gross or physical Kingdoms of Nature Sattva – spiritual beings: Gods, Goddesses and sages Rajas – human realm Tamas – mineral, plant and animal kingdoms States of Consciousness Sattva – waking Rajas – dream Tamas – deep sleep
