Satvik, Rajasik, Tamasik | Our minds dwell on these three states at different proportions

Just like nature goes through a seasonal cycle and our bodies go through their hormonal cycles, our mind go through its own cycle as well. This is where the mind jumps from one state to another. In layman terms we call this mood swings. We refer to the three states as Satvik, Rajasik and Tamasik. Each of these states or attributes have their own characteristics. Satvik stands for goodness, peace and calm which Rajasik and Tamasik are considered to be lower states where the mind loses its goodness. Each of our minds dwell on these three states at different proportions and this determines how we think, feel, behave and live.
Spiritual wisdom teaches us that our true self is independent of the mind and its states. When you transcend the three states, your universe of mind body and spirit come into balance and alignment. This is a matter of an understanding and experience that dawns at one point in your internal journey. The biggest wisdom is to let it be and to focus on your being.
