Açıklama

Krishna gives a first example: what people worship reveals their faith. The sattvic worship the gods (devas), the rajasic worship yakshas and rakshasas, powerful beings associated with wealth and force, and the tamasic worship ghosts and spirits of the dead. The list reflects the religious world of the time, but its point is general. People are drawn to powers that mirror their own desires, whether toward light and order, toward power and gain, or toward darkness and fear.
