Rāja-Vidyā Rāja-Guhya Yoga (राजविद्या राजगुह्य योग) — The Yoga of Royal Knowledge and Royal Secret
१२ ।। सम्बन्ध-- भगवान्ने यह दिखलाया कि समस्त जयत् मेरा ही स्वरूप है और मुझसे ही व्याप्त है। यहाँ यह जिज्ञासा होती है कि इस प्रकार सर्वत्र परिपूर्ण और अत्यन्त समीप होनेपर भी लोग भगवान्को क्यों नहीं पहचानते: इसपर भगवान् कहते हैं-- त्रिभिर्गुणमयैभविरेभि: सर्वमिदं जगत् | मोहितं नाभिजानाति मामेभ्य: परमव्ययम्
tribhir guṇamayair bhāvair ebhiḥ sarvam idaṁ jagat | mohitaṁ nābhijānāti mām ebhyaḥ param avyayam ||
整个世界被由三种古那所生的三态所迷惑——清明（sattva）、激情（rajas）与昏暗惰性（tamas）。因此，人们不能认识我——超越诸古那的至上不灭者。

Educational Q&A
Human perception is conditioned by the three guṇas; as long as consciousness is shaped by sattva, rajas, and tamas, one cannot recognize the Supreme Reality that is beyond them. Spiritual progress requires discerning the guṇas’ influence and turning toward the imperishable Self/Lord.
In the Gītā’s teaching sequence, the Lord explains why, despite being all-pervading and the very essence of the world, He is not recognized by ordinary beings: their minds are deluded by guṇa-born dispositions, which veil direct knowledge of the transcendent.
