Your view of reality is faulty! This Bhagavad-gita verse speaks of 3 levels of distortion we suffer

If your faculty of perception is faulty, you’ll make poor choices, you’ll do the wrong things and thus you’re bound to suffer.
The path of yoga as described in the Bhagavad-gita famously describes how we can correct this distortion of reality, understand things correctly and consequently live a much happier life, both now and in the future.
In this verse of Chapter 3, we’ll see Krishna describe 3 levels of distortion we are subject to, and their causes.
dhūmenāvriyate vahnir
yathādarśo malena ca
yatholbenāvṛto garbhas
tathā tenedam āvṛtam
“Just as a fire is covered by smoke, a mirror is covered by dust, or an embryo is covered by the womb, so varying degrees of material energy constantly distort the discerning faculty of human perception.”
Bhagavad-gita 3.38

Amazing examples of 3 gunas. Does anxiety and fear belong to rajas guna guruji?

[@3tpath]

Anxiety is rajas. Krishna says in the Bhagavad-gita that in rajas there is endless anxiety. That's because our minds are in the future, hankering after results, worrying about things beyond our control. It's what I call the "fantasy paradigm" in The 3T Path.
