Bhagavad Gita 14.19नान्यं गुणेभ्यः कर्तारं यदा द्रष्टानुपश्यति।गुणेभ्यश्च परं वेत्ति मद्भावं सोऽधिगच्छति ॥

The Supreme Self is in no way contaminated by the alities. The liberated sage exclaims I am the witness of the alities. I am neither the enjoyer nor the doer. The alities form the motive power of all actions. I am beyond the Gunas. The Gunas alone are responsible for all actions. I am entirely distinct from the alities. I am pure consciousness. I cannot be touched by the alities. I am like the ether.When a man gets illumination or attains knowledge of the Self, when he realises that there is no agent except the Gunas which are themselves modified as the bodies, the senses and their objects, when he knows that it is the Gunas only that become the agent in all transformations, in all states and in all actions, and when he realises the Supreme Self Who is distinct from the Gunas, Who is the silent witness of the Gunas and their functions, he attains to My state (liberation), i.e., becomes identical with Me. He becomes a Gunatita, i.e., one who has transcended the three Gunas.
