==Gossip==
The habit of talk about others. It is therefore this tendency that must cease in the vital itself. Not to be under the control of the impulse to speech, to be able to do without it as a necessity and to speak only when one sees that it is right to do so and only what one sees to be right to say, is a very necessary part of Yogic self-control. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/35/avoiding-gossip#p9</ref>
==Grace==
Loving recognition of the Grace received from the Divine, a humble recognition of all that the Divine has done and is doing for you, the spontaneous feeling of obligation to the Divine, which makes you do your best to become less unworthy of what the Divine is doing for you.

Gratitude: it is you who open all the closed doors and let the Grace which saves penetrate deeply.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/14/gratitude#p1</ref>
==Guna==
The gunas are modes or processes of Nature. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/28/the-sankhya-yoga-system#p33</ref>
