Question

The gunas are paths of knowledge, work, destruction, respectively.

Answer 1

By analyzing what we know about gunas, we can say that the statement is false.

What are the gunas?

The gunas are a really important concept in Hindu philosophy, this concept, can be translated to "quality, peculiarity, attribute, property".

Now, there are 3 gunas, these are (and their traits):

• Sattva (Goodness, Calmness, Balance).
• Rajas (Passion, Activity, Egoism)
• Tamas (Ignorance, Laziness, Violence).

Such that these 3 are in every person, just that the "distribution" is different person to person.

Now to the question:

The gunas are paths of knowledge, work, destruction, respectively?

First of all, guns are "properties" or "qualities" that people have, I'm not sure if we can call them paths.

On another hand, for example, you can relate "Tamas" to a "path of destruction", yes, but Tamas is way more than that. Tamas is also anxiety, ignorance, chaos, etc...

So the gunas are way more the 3 listed paths.

From that, we conclude that the statement is false.
