When consciousness becomes clear and the senses are detached from matter, one experiences fearlessness within the material body and detachment from the material mind. You should understand this situation to be the predominance of the mode of goodness, in which one has the opportunity to realize Me.
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
When consciousness becomes clear, when the senses are detached from matter, when one experiences fearlessness within the material body and when one has detachment from the material mind, you should understand this situation to be the predominance of sattva, in which state one performs actions to attain me. Thus when a particular guṇa increase, the other two are suppressed. By what conditions does a certain guṇa increase? This is explained in three verses. When consciousness becomes pure, the senses are without agitation, and one is unattached to the mind, then sattva increases. In that state one performs activities to attain me.
