Verse 14.15
रजसि प्रलयं गत्वा कर्मसङ्गिषु जायते । तथा प्रलीनस्तमसि मूढयोनिषु जायते ॥ १४.१५ ॥
रजोगुण के बढ़ने पर मृत्यु को प्राप्त होकर कर्मों की आसक्ति वाले मनुष्यों में उत्पन्न होता है ; तथा तमोगुण के बढ़ने पर मरा हुआ मनुष्य कीट, पशु आदि मूढ़ योनियों में उत्पन्न होता है ।
Should a person be in the RAJAS state at the time of death, he is reborn in the places of the world where he is restless and constantly active. Similarly if a person is TAMASIC at the time of his death, he is reborn into a family of irrational behaviour, laziness and dullness.
