Taken Shape

"Vedanta teaches that the cosmos is made of Prakriti, the elemental, undifferentiated stuff of mind and matter. Prakriti is defined as the power or effect of Brahman (God)in the sense that heat is a power or effect of fire. Just as heat cannot exist apart from the fire which causes it, so Prakriti could not exist apart from Brahman.

Prakriti is said to be composed of three forces, sattwa, rajas and tamas, which are known collectively as the three gunas. In the process of evolution, sattwa is the essence of the form which has to be realized, tamas is the inherent obstacle to its realization, and rajas is the power by which that obstacle is removed and the essential form made manifest. 

A sculptor decides to make a figure of a horse. The idea of this horse - the form of it which he sees in his imagination - is inspired by sattwa. Now he gets a lump of clay. This clay represents the power of tamas - its formlessness is an obstacle which has to be overcome. Perhaps, also, there is an element of tamas in the sculptor's own mind. He may think: 'This is going to be a lot of trouble. It's too difficult. I'm tired. Why should I make the effort?' But here the force of rajas comes to his aid. Rajas, in this instance, represents the sculptor's will to conquer his own lethargy and the difficulties of his medium; it represents, also, the muscular exertion which he puts forth in order to complete his work. If a sufficient amount of rajas is generated, the obstacle of tamas will be overcome and the ideal form of sattwa will be embodied in a tangible clay object."
