रागी कर्मफलप्रेप्सुर्लुब्धो हिंसात्मकोऽशुचिः । हर्षशोकान्वितः कर्ता राजसः परिकीर्तितः ॥ १८.२७ ॥
जो कर्ता आसक्ति से युक्त्त, कर्मों के फल को चाहने वाला और लोभी है तथा दूसरों को कष्ट देने के स्वभाव वाला, अशुद्भाचारी और हर्ष-शोक से लिप्त है — वह राजस कहा गया है ।
The worker who is over-attached to his work and activity, and to the results of his work, who wants to enjoy the good results, who is always jealous of the other’s possessions, is selfish, greedy, violent, impure, and who is affected by both pleasure and pain, is a man of the impure, Rajas-nature.
