What is knowledge in the mode of goodness, passion and ignorance? The knowledge by which one perceives in all embodied beings the eternal soul existing within all, from the highest demigod Brahma, to human being, animal, bird, plant, is situated in sattva guna. The concept that the material body is the living entity and that with the destruction of the body the consciousness is also destroyed is called knowledge in the mode of passion. Lord Krishna explains that the knowledge in tama guna is limited to the singular idea of bodily conception as if the physical body is the actual identity of the embodied being. It is the knowledge of common man. Every living entity in conditional life is born into the mode of ignorance.
