Sattva — Harmony, Luminosity, Balance

Sattva is the guna of clarity, goodness, illumination — the quality of a still lake that perfectly reflects the sky. Hex 11 (Peace) is heaven and earth in mutual service, the equilibrium that sattva names. Hex 22 (Grace) is fire at the foot of the mountain: beauty that arises naturally from inner harmony. Sattva is not passivity but the dynamic balance that produces clarity. The Gita warns that even sattva can bind — attachment to goodness is still attachment.
