Level of the board: Beyond the chakras, the plane of the absolute. Row 8 of 8.
Meaning of the cell
Rajo-guna is activity in consciousness, or active consciousness. A player who has reached the eighth row but failed in his attempt to realize Cosmic Consciousness is carried forward by the forces of karma, of activity. Rajo-guna turns a person's attention toward the outer world; if directed inward, rajo-guna becomes inner dialogue. Without transforming tamas into sattva, higher states of consciousness are unattainable. Still, a person can remain in sattva even during activity, using rajo-guna in sattvic work.
