From "The Gita"
3 Gunas (part or principles of the soul)
* Sativa-(light)reason/understanding/ enlightenment
* Raja-(fire)- passion/desire/restless desire (ambition,drive for power,riches, worldly achievement)
* Tamas-(darkness)-Lethargy(extreme laziness) Siloth/ignorance

"Spiritual goals attended through pursuing them in a non-attached way."
*********************************************
From "The Upanishads"/"Katha"
Nachiketa- Son of Brahmin goes to the king of Death.For the 3 nights that Death wasn't home, he got 3 wishes.
The 3 wishes
*1)His father won't be angry, worry, and will forgive him.
*2)How to preform the fire sacrifice.(helps souls get into Heaven/preformed at funerals.)
*3)Secret of immortality- meditation,worldly desires is the wrong way,

Death is Bad- brings you back to a world of suffering- but not EVIL.
