About this listen

The episode discusses the different ways that people engage in religious practices based on their individual motivations and qualities. It classifies these actions into three categories: goodness, passion, and ignorance, each corresponding to one of the three modes of material nature. The episode explains that activities like worship, charity, and penance can be performed with a pure intent, driven by a desire for spiritual progress, or with impure motives, such as seeking personal gain or recognition. The text further emphasizes the importance of scriptural guidance in performing these activities, suggesting that actions done according to the scriptures are more likely to lead to liberation from the material world.
