पृथक्त्वेन तु यज्ज्ञानं नानाभावान्पृथग्विधान् | वेत्ति सर्वेषु भूतेषु तज्ज्ञानं विद्धि राजसम्
pṛthaktvena tu yajjñānaṃ nānābhāvānpṛthagvidhān . vetti sarveṣu bhūteṣu tajjñānaṃ viddhi rājasam
ಆದರೆ, ಯಾವ ಜ್ಞಾನವು ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಭೂತಗಳಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ವಿವಿಧ ರೀತಿಯ ನಾನಾ ಭಾವಗಳನ್ನು ಪ್ರತ್ಯೇಕವಾಗಿ ತಿಳಿಯುತ್ತದೆಯೋ, ಆ ಜ್ಞಾನವನ್ನು ರಾಜಸವೆಂದು ತಿಳಿ.
But know that knowledge to be originating from rajas which, amidst all things, apprehends the different entities of various kinds as distinct [As possessing distinct selves.].
ಪ್ರತ್ಯೇಕತೆಯ ಭಾವದಿಂದ ಕೂಡಿದ ಜ್ಞಾನವು ರಾಜಸವಾಗಿರುತ್ತದೆ. ಇದು ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಯ ವೈವಿಧ್ಯತೆಯನ್ನು ಪ್ರತ್ಯೇಕವಾಗಿ ಗ್ರಹಿಸುತ್ತದೆ, ಏಕತೆಯನ್ನು ಕಾಣುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.
Knowledge which sees As knowledge cannot be an agent? this should be interpreted to mean knowledge by which one sees.Entities Selves or souls.Different from one another Regarding them as different in different bodies.The knowledge that is led by the idea of separateness is passionate. Enveloping as it does the manifold creation with the veil of separateness? it deludes even the wise man. Owing to passionate knowledge? beings appear to be separate and the perception of unity is also lost sight of. That knowledge which beholds multiplicity in created objects and differentiates them as being small or great? according to their form and size? is of passionate nature and tainted. A man with passionate knowledge sees diversity everywhere. He beholds the many only.Now I will explain to thee? O Arjuna? knowledge that is of the ality of darkness? in order that thou mayest avoid it.
