रागी कर्मफलप्रेप्सुर्लुब्धो हिंसात्मकोऽशुचि: |
हर्षशोकान्वित: कर्ता राजस: परिकीर्तित: ||
rāgī karma-phala-prepsur lubdho hinsātmako ‘śhuchiḥ
harṣha-śhokānvitaḥ kartā rājasaḥ parikīrtitaḥ
भावार्थ:
जो कर्ता आसक्ति से युक्त कर्मों के फल को चाहने वाला और लोभी है तथा दूसरों को कष्ट देने के स्वभाववाला, अशुद्धाचारी और हर्ष-शोक से लिप्त है वह राजस कहा गया है॥27॥
