    • Donation performed for achieving success

    Correct Answer
    A. Abandonment of the fruits of all actions.
    Explanation
    Tyaga, as per Chapter 18, refers to the abandonment of the fruits of all actions. This means letting go of any attachment or expectation towards the outcomes or rewards of one's actions. It is a practice of selflessness and detachment, where one performs actions without seeking personal gain or recognition. By practicing Tyaga, individuals can attain a state of inner peace and spiritual growth, as they are no longer driven by desire or ego.

    Krishna asks Arjuna not to talk about the teachings of Gita to one who desires not to listen and to one who raises irrelevant objections.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Krishna advises Arjuna to refrain from discussing the teachings of the Gita with individuals who have no interest in listening or learning, as well as those who raise irrelevant objections. This suggests that Krishna values the importance of engaging in meaningful and productive conversations, rather than wasting time and energy on individuals who are not receptive or open-minded. Therefore, the statement "True" is correct.

    Which among the following is not a quality of Sattvic or Pure?

    • Free from attached

    • Full of pleasure and grief

    • Consistent

    • Unmoved in success and failure

    Correct Answer
    A. Full of pleasure and grief
    Explanation
    The quality of being "Full of pleasure and grief" is not a characteristic of Sattvic or Pure. Sattvic or Pure refers to being free from attachment, consistent, and unmoved in success and failure. Being "Full of pleasure and grief" implies being emotionally volatile and attached to worldly experiences, which goes against the concept of Sattvic or Pure.

    • Practise of rituals

    • Purity of intellect

    • Giving up attraction and hatred

    • Giving up the sense of I and mine

    Correct Answer
    A. Practise of rituals
    Explanation
    The practice of rituals is not necessary for a devotee to realize the Truth. While rituals may be a part of religious practices, they are external actions and do not necessarily lead to the realization of Truth. Realizing Truth requires inner qualities such as purity of intellect, giving up attraction and hatred, and giving up the sense of I and mine. These qualities involve introspection, selflessness, and a deep understanding of the nature of reality.

    Correct Answer
    A. Not egoistic in speech
    Explanation
    The quality of being not egoistic in speech does not align with the characteristics of Tamasic or dull. Tamasic qualities are associated with laziness, inertia, and a lack of motivation. Being not egoistic in speech suggests humility and selflessness, which are not typically associated with Tamasic qualities.

    A. Tamasic
    Explanation
    An action that is undertaken without awareness or understanding, without considering the consequences, and without concern for the harm it may cause or the ability to accomplish it, is considered Tamasic. This means that the action is driven by ignorance, delusion, and a lack of clarity or discernment. It is characterized by laziness, inertia, and a lack of purpose or direction. Such actions are not motivated by higher values or a sense of duty, but rather by ignorance and a lack of awareness.

    • Tamasic Karma

    • Sattvic Karma

    • Rajasic Karma

    • None of the Above

    Correct Answer
    A. Rajasic Karma
    Explanation
    Rajasic karma refers to actions that are performed with desire for personal gain and with a sense of ego, believing oneself to be the doer. These actions are also characterized by a lot of exertion and effort. This type of karma is driven by passion, ambition, and attachment to the outcomes of one's actions. It is considered to be a moderately active and binding form of karma, as it keeps individuals trapped in the cycle of birth and death.

    • Endowed with a pure intellect; controlling the self by firmness; relinquishing sound and other objects; and abandoning attraction and hatred

    • Dwelling in solitude, eating but little, speech, body and mind subdued; always engage in meditation and concentration; taking refuge in dispassion…

    • Having abandoned egoism, power, arrogance, desire, anger and aggrandisement; freed from the notion of min and so peaceful – he is fit to become Brahman.

    • That gift which is given, knowing it to be a duty, in a fit time and place to a worthy person, from who we expect nothing in return, is held to be sattvic.

    Correct Answer
    A. That gift which is given, knowing it to be a duty, in a fit time and place to a worthy person, from who we expect nothing in return, is held to be sattvic.
    Explanation
    The given answer is not a verse in chapter 18 because it discusses the concept of giving a gift in a sattvic manner, which is not mentioned in the other verses. The verses in chapter 18 focus on qualities such as pure intellect, self-control, meditation, and abandoning egoism and desire.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    In which category does Gita put a person who abandons moral duties and obligations?

    • Rajasic of Passionate

    • Sattvic or Pure

    • Tamasic or dull

    • Both Rajasic and Sattvic

    Correct Answer
    A. Both Rajasic and Sattvic
    Explanation
    Gita puts a person who abandons moral duties and obligations in both the Rajasic and Sattvic categories. This suggests that such a person can exhibit qualities of both passion and purity. Rajasic individuals may abandon moral duties due to their passionate nature, while Sattvic individuals may do so out of a misguided sense of purity. Therefore, Gita recognizes that abandoning moral duties can stem from different motivations and categorizes it under both Rajasic and Sattvic.
