effect of sattwa[goodness]in time of death

yada sattva pravarddhe tu,pralayam yati dehabhrt,
tado ttamavidam lokan,amalan pratipadyat.--14

When one leaves this gross body and subtle soul departs in under the influence of sattvaguna[goodness]it reaches to the highest loka called as 'paramloka' witch is the abode of God himself.
According bhagavadgita it is the Gunas at the time of death which establishes death and these after in case of death under the influnce of sattvaguna the soul enters the higher planes which is abode of God.
If at the time of death we were in sattavaguna[goodness] in the state of joy and knowledge we go to heaven upper level of the earth and take the form of davi,davata,[god, goddess.according to gita our last moments effects on our next journey[lives.It is like as if we go to station and take the ticket of that city or village.so when a human changes his subtle body.if he leaves his physical body in the state of sattavaguna in peaceful,joyful knowledgeable state he goes to upper level of the ladder and reborn like an angle,god.goddess. but it will be according life as we have lead.then we will go to heaven,or in a rich family as due to our good deeds.

About next lives

In Gita it is a vast subject about death.in other realigns did not shed light on this subject.and now a days this opinion is for most in western countries.as last year i saw a movie based on Bhagwat gita in u.s.a.It was a story of a young girl who reborn in an other state of U.S.A.it was a real story.she describes every event of her previous life.
according to this theory death is the name of leaving the subtle to physical body.it is also narrated in Maharishi Ramana's biography when he was on walk with a devotee.he lay down on a mountain and his subtle body left his physical body.devotee began to weep and his physical body became dark.maharishi was looking this all in his subtle body.but after some time his subtle body entered in his physical body.this is not very uncommon in siddh purshas.
Now what is the effect of these three gunas at the time of death to reborn,we will understand this by 14th solaka.the subtle body is our blue print[seed]to grow in other birth.

Tamsguna[dullness]

aprkkaso parvirti ca,parmado moha eva ca,
tamasy etani jayante,vivrddhe kurunandana--13

Tamasguna[dullness]deprives of enlightenment and makes one do things or actions which arise out of ignorance negligence and lust for basic gratification without the slightest care for morality.lust is supreme and wickedness assist the guna.
There are sines of 'tamas guna'.when these increases a sadhaka should be aware so that this can not defeat him.laziness is like an enemy for a practitioner not for ordinary person.. because by the map of this bhagwat gita we can achieve our aim of self realization.so when this quality comes in action unillumination,inactivity,negligence and mere delusion,these rises ,o joy of the kurus[Arjuna],when dullness increases.

About rajasguna[passion]

Lobhah parvrir arambhah,karmanam asamah sprha
rajasy etani jayante,vivrathe bharatarsabha--12

Lord krishana explained O!Bharta[Arjuna]the singes of of growing of rajas guna when it is at play,greed,inspires activities for self gratification through action.deeds and deep craving to get the fufilment of greed both worldly and passions.this leads to acquiring both physical and mental pleasure.
we can not sit for a while to rest in this time our demands,lust increases.we think we should do this and that for obtaining fruits.we can not satisfied by any thing as car,house,wife,wealth and fame,power.so for this we work hard without rest.when we find these qualities in ourself we should aware of them as an enemy in ourself.

Sattavguna[goodness]

sarvedawarasu dehe swinprakasha upajayate
jnanam yada tada vidyad,vivrddham sattvam ity uta--11

when light starts flowing in all the pores of the body,it is evident that the sattava is getting enhanced and effecting it's true selves.

The light of knowledge can have a full Physical manifestation,than we should think that now 'sattava'is active.we get knowledge of outer things by five sense organs.our gates of body are as eyes, tongue,skin,ears and nose they are sense organs the five are objects as,sight,taste,touch,hearing and smell.
so in the time of happiness,and knowledge we feels peace and calmness.the truth of consciousness is not opposed to expression in matter.the divine can be realized on the physical plane.to divinize the human consciousness to bring the light into the physical.To transfer our whole life is the aim of yoga.when our minds are illumined and senses quickened than sattva predominates.

one guna[mode] in front and other two do not work

rajas tamas ca bhibhuya,sattam bahavti bharata,
rajah sattvam tamas cai va,tamah sattvam rajas tatha--10

Although all the modes remains and operate in all human beings yet when one mode operates the other two are remains calm.when sattva operates both rajas and tamaha suppress. correspondingly when rajas operates sattava and thamaha suppress.and so is with tahamah.--10

O Bharata[Arjuna]when sattav gun rise in our mind than tahama and rajas remains in back side of our mind.one guna[mode]gives the effect to our mind including to body the other two remains in back.when sattava guna comes it gives its properties as knowledge and pleasure.we enjoy by any spiritual book or by watching our favorite movie or by going to a tour,party meaning is this that we enjoy any pleasure.
our mind functions about any subject of pleasure.when pleasure and knowledge inter in our mind due to any object we should know that quality of sattva is in it's function.we can see rajas and tamas in back without disturbing us.
And when sattava and tamas are in back of our body and mind then we should know that rajas [passion]has enter in our mind.when it is active we attach to worldly things as wealth, property.Rajas meaning your approach exclusively material and pleasure.
when 'Tamaha'comes in our mind and body,it converts us laziness and selfishness.we wants fruit without doing any any work.Dark sides comes in our minds.in this time rajas and sattva remains in back of our mind.we forget our aim,what spiritual books and saints guides us.
these three qualities lies in our mind.so by witnessing we should check them so that we can come to sattava[goodness]and from sattava we can jump in the self.[samadhi]
