"Material quality"

Srimad-Bhagavatam

SB Canto 1

The mode of sattva is a still higher stage of material quality, which actually helps one in realizing the Absolute Truth

SB 1.2.24 Purport: The uncivilized state of life, or the life of the lower animals, is controlled by the mode of tamas. The civilized life of man, with a passion for various types of material benefits, is the stage of rajas. The rajas stage of life gives a slight clue to the realization of the Absolute Truth in the forms of fine sentiments in philosophy, art and culture with moral and ethical principles, but the mode of sattva is a still higher stage of material quality, which actually helps one in realizing the Absolute Truth.
