The rise of tamasz Print
Written by Ayurvéda portál   

The rise of tamaszTamasz is the dark principle of the life. His typical aspects are the not knowledge, the shrink, the constraint, the stiffness, the difficulty, the unconsciousness. So the tamasz will decrease the doshas and leads to the loss of their balance. The reduced doshas will lead to the loss of the vitality, and the loss of the balance may cause spiritual-bodily illnesses. What can lead to the rise of the tamasz?

The tamasz is growing in the senses if the person acts despite his not knowledge and due to this gets into a duality, a fear will overcome on him. So all fears will strengthen the tamasz!  From the sin and from the fears you can read in other articles more detailed.

the appearance forms of tamasz

The tamasz gets stronger if the person’s desires, faith and denial comes into conflict with each other. The result of this is that the perosn won’t be able to decide, to forgive , at the same time also won’t be able to change. Think about it if you had like that in your life when you have assimilated with yourself? When your brain said you should go right, but your heart have pulled you into left and you were unable to depart to any direction? It may be in connection with your work, or with your contacts. Did it already happen that you acted against your faith, because you were afraid or you desired on something, that you could get like this. Did it already happen in your life that you were afraid of someone or something or you were angry at somebody, even so for a little benefit you have forced your senses and you have done something that you haven’t done with pleasure? Was it like that when you desired on something strongly, but you were afraid to change, so because of this your desire could not come true ? Well, these are all the situations which increase the tamasz in your life.

The aspects and effects of the tamasz in the person

All conflicts which haven’t been solved will increase the tamasz in yourself, all fears and denails, since these will reduce your living space and your degree of freedom. You can find here some examples from the aspects which increasing the tamasz:the tamasz is growing in the largest measure in the blasphemous person as in his oath he is swearing at the love, peace, truth. The tamasz is raising in that person who is only able to leave according to rules. A person like this is afraid of the freedom and also does not understand the life. Also those “beleivers” belong here who do not understand the teachings but they follow them with rigid affection. Unfortunately most religious and esoteric masters are like this. Although they do not understand the true essence of the laws written down in the religious saint books, however they are able to stigmatize those people who do not keep them, so they will threw also themselves into darkness (see it: Bible:hand-wash of the apostles, or spike tearing on Saturday etc.). All divine laws are for the people, and not the person for the law. From under these only the divine predestinations are exceptions (Mantras:special dharma, Bible:pre-ordained fates:see it: Joseph, Moses, Jesus). The correct interpretation of the law will free you, while the wrong interpretation plunges you into darkness. Be careful, sometimes the things which are looking like free will also push you into darkness. “ You do not love your wife, so leave her “ saying many esoteric masters. Avoid all people like this because he is the ruin of you. Namely this is a freedom apparently, as when you will be unfaithful the tamasz will rise in you, as you are doing against your former faith and pledge, and you will get into duality and to the enchantment of the fear. You are saying that you got divorced but you are not afraid? Sure you are, but if you do not even admit it because you have dismissed your fear far away into your subconscious, than it will define your acts and will restrict you in many things.
 
The tamasz is rising in you if you pass judgment hypocritically. If the aspects that you adjudge in something else and they also live in yourself, than you also will get into duality, since you know it through your judgement what is wrong, but you are still committing it. At the same time all curse will increase the tamasz in you what people say to you and in what you do not have faith to protect you. The life will always react to you, if you act correct than you will get the grace as a blessing from the people around you , if wrong than as a curse. In this case not only the malicious wishes are the curse but also if as a consequence of your wrong acts wrong faith takes shape in your environment. The easiest example is if your environment thinks that you are lazy, than their faith will restrain you and it is very hard to change this law about you.
 
One of the most dangerous tamasz increasing aspect is the remorse, it has a big effect mostly on those people who believe deeply in God. Two evil is waiting for those people who are living in remorse. One of them is that they do not know the law correctly (not knowing). Since the remorse evolved because someone recognised the sin. This is a big grace, as billion of people on the earth are living like they do not know what is the sin (at least not all of it’s aspects). At the same time it’s also a grace if you have identified it, you have regretted it and you won’t commit it again, than the sin won’t lead you any more, so you have been freed. Other aspect of this situation is that the person living in remorse is not able to the forgiveness, or rather does not believe in the redemption, so he will really judge himself into darkness. Many people who are living in remorse will select some kind of ministration (charitable activity, curing, etc.) If you would see it, you would be shocked how many people are there who are going to a master that they would like to help for people, though they themselves would need help. They want to do penance for their sins instead of they would learn to believe in the grace or to forgive. A person like this falls into extremity from an extremity. We should help on our fellow-beings because we enter into their feelings, and not because we have remorse. I was writing about this in the script:rising of the szattva.
 
With getting the right knowledge the person will get into ever higher freedom measure. Who does not consider this as important and does not learn because his other desires will tie up his life, than in that person the tamasz will evolve, when he would need the outstanding knowledge getting his desires. Imagine, that only in the material world how many people would like to have more payment, better work or rather through these more material needs. But when he had to constitute himself for this when he was young, instead of the larning he was choosing the entertainment and filling up his other desires. This is the same also on the spiritual road, the result of the not knowledge or wrong knowledge is the constraint. Who does not know the spiritual laws that person will often get into a conflict, into a sin and often he is unable to create a change in himself that would support his aims.
 
Apart from the above the fears will raise the tamasz, I won’t detail it now as you can read it in the article of Thoughts of the faith. The sin will also raise the tamasz , about this you can read in the article of Thoughts about the sin. Understand the message and do not believe to the false doctrines . The man can do everything whatever he wants. But how, is important. There is no right or false act in itself, it makes your senses state it for one or for the other one. The ability of the forgiveness will make the man free, which is written down in the Bible with the strength of the holyspirit. In whom there is a spirit, is capable, in whom there isn’t, that person should learn it in order to be freed. Who is comfortable and doesn’t want to learn, at least should do it for himself to believe in the redemption.

AVOID the TAMASZ

I tell you the story about the tamasz because you should recognise it and not because you should lament above yourself,  because you find it in yourself, even not because hereby you judge on other persons. You may spend the correct knowledge on understanding the other person better and to be able to forgive him. So both of you will be bigger in God. You, because you forgave him, and he , because he is not pressed from your judgement. Do not forget that the soldier of God does not fight with steel and firearm first of all, but with prayer, forgiving, guide, teaching, healing. Be also a fighter because a fight like this will make you very much worthy onto the country of the Heaven.
