The Modulatory Effects of Hormones on Sato, Rajo and Tamo Guna

Hormones are a substance which, produced in any one part of an organism, is transferred to another part and there influences a specific physiological process. Hormones are chemical messengers which can trigger genetic flow of information. It conduct a wide variety of functions ranging from human action and behaviour, growth, vegetative and sexual development, cellular oxidation to thermal production and the metabolism of bio molecules. The interaction of hormone and receptor typically triggers a cascade of secondary effects within the cytoplasm of the cell. With the help of receptors, the cell got information from surroundings or from previous genes. An attempt has been made an efforts the working function of hormones to regulate the three qualities i.e. Satv, Rajo, Tamo as mentioned in Shrimad Bhagwad Gita. A possessive of these gunas control the journey of life before birth to liberation by developing the karma Sanskara which brings the 84 lakhs of Yonis. In this paper we put forward the scientific bases of three gunas with the help of hormonal action.
