How Sattvic are you?

Sattva is a Sanskrit word that translates as pure creative energy. In Ayurveda, Sattva is one of the 3 Gunnas (universal energies). The other 2 gunnas are Rajas (sustaining) & Tamas (Destructive).

Sattva manifests all life & provides harmony & support in the universe. A sattvic mind works peacefully and is content. Sattvic individuals always work for the welfare of the world.

Ayurveda recommends that everyone should aspire to have Sattva as the predominant Gunna in their life.

The Sattvic questionnaire:

Are you supportive & generous?
Are you selfless?
Do you respect all life?
Are you caring & considerate?
Do you experience jealousy, greed, lust or anger?
Is your lifestyle moderate?
Is your speech clear & truthful?

Do you avoid using vulgar or insulting language?
Is your home &/or workplace positive and supportive?
Is your job or role in society beneficial to humanity?
Are your sources of entertainment helpful to you?
Do you aspire to a higher state of consciousness?
If you answered yes to all of these questions you are a Sattvic person – Keep it up
