रजस्तमश्चाभिभूय सत्वं भवति भारत |

रज: सत्वं तमश्चैव तम: सत्वं रजस्तथा || 10||

rajas tamaśh chābhibhūya sattvaṁ bhavati bhārata
rajaḥ sattvaṁ tamaśh chaiva tamaḥ sattvaṁ rajas tathā

भावार्थ:

हे अर्जुन! रजोगुण और तमोगुण को दबाकर सत्त्वगुण, सत्त्वगुण और तमोगुण को दबाकर रजोगुण, वैसे ही सत्त्वगुण और रजोगुण को दबाकर तमोगुण होता है अर्थात बढ़ता है॥10॥

Translation

Sometimes goodness (sattva) prevails over passion (rajas) and ignorance (tamas), O scion of Bharat. Sometimes passion (rajas) dominates goodness (sattva) and ignorance (tamas), and at other times ignorance (tamas) overcomes goodness (sattva) and passion (rajas).

English Translation Of Sri Shankaracharya’s Sanskrit Commentary By Swami Gambirananda
