Q: What is difference between laziness and taking rest?
4:19 AM
Answer: When there is rise in tamogun* in the body, you become lazy. Lying down in this state may give you a little rest or energy, but if your mind keeps on struggling with desires and feverishness, it doesn’t get complete rest. The rest you get after doing work is the actual rest. When your body gets complete rest, your mind is also joyful. That gives you strength and your positive intentions start getting fulfilled.
Tamo gun: The factor which brings sleep, however, if imbalanced leads to depression and lethargy.
