Those that governs gradually under amounted to the upper planets, those that dominate the passion remain on average planets, land, and those qu'enveloppent ignorance pamper the infernal worlds.
This verse describes more explicitly the fruits qu'apportent acts performed under the influence of different modes of material nature, the attributes of the material nature. There is a higher planetary system, consisting of the heavenly planets, where beings are highly evolved. And the degree of virtue that has developed in him, man can be promoted on such of these planets. The highest of them is called Satyaloka, or Brahmaloka; this is where Brahma, the demiurge, the first being in this universe. We have already seen how difficult it is to imagine the wonderful living conditions found on Brahmaloka, but the highest form of existence, the state of virtue, however, can elevate us to such a life, the planet of Brahma.
Passion, between virtue and ignorance, receives two dyeing. A rarely be governed by pure guna, without reflection of the other two; but let a man be dominated by one passion: his destiny would be to stay on this earth as king or rich man. But because ignorance can mingle with the passion, the passion of man will also fall. On the other hand, the inhabitants of Earth, dominated by passion or ignorance, can not reach the outer planets by the force of their mechanical means. Another reflection of the passion is that it can be a lead to dementia in his next life.
Lowest of the gunas, ignorance, is described here as abominable. Increasing the influence of the gunas is a great risk, that of falling into the horrible conditions faced by eight million species inferior to man, birds, beasts, reptiles, trees, etc. And man falls into such conditions as the degree of ignorance that has developed in him. Tamasah the word in this verse is heavy with meaning: it refers to those who are still under the influence of ignorance, never rising to a higher guna. Their future is darkness.
It is a path that can lead to men under that govern the passion and ignorance, and that path is called Krsna consciousness. Whoever refuses will languish in the lower gunas.
The quality of our consciousness at the time of death determines our next destination. The content of our thoughts and our memories at the time of death, are in turn influenced by our actions and our consciousness in this life. Constantly think God put it in our mind, so we can reach it, and after leaving our body, join him in his absolute realm.
