The Hindu ritualists believe that the ultimate goal of human life is to obtain the heavens, the abode of pure pleasures. This is achieved through accumulating merits by performing rituals and leading a life of dharma.
According to Vedanta philosophy, the final goal is liberation, which entails immortality and freedom from death, old age, and suffering. This can be accomplished by detaching from the qualities of Nature, namely Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas.
In the Bhagavad Gita, the curious seeker, Arjuna, asked Lord Krishna about the signs of a person who has transcended the qualities and how such a person behaves while living with the body.
He also inquired about how one can transcend these qualities. The answer to these questions is important for seekers who want to learn how to remain unaffected by the ups and downs of life.
