रजसि प्रलयं गत्वा कर्मसङ्गिषु जायते | तथा प्रलीनस्तमसि मूढयोनिषु जायते
rajasi pralayaṃ gatvā karmasaṅgiṣu jāyate . tathā pralīnastamasi mūḍhayoniṣu jāyate
当一个人在激性(rajas)主导时死去,他便出生在执着于行动的人们之中。同样,当一个人在惰性(tamas)主导时死去,他便出生在愚昧的物种之中。
When one dies while rajas predominates, he is born among people attached to activity. Similarly, when one dies while tamas predominates, he takes birth among the stupid species.
在激性(Rajas)中遭遇死亡:如果一个人在激性占据主导时死去,他便出生在执着于行动的人们之中。如果一个人在惰性(Tamas)完全占据主导时死去,他便出生在愚昧的物种之中,例如牛、鸟、野兽或昆虫。他可能出生在迟钝愚蠢的人类或最低等的人类之中,而不必投生为动物。这是某些人的观点。
Meeting with death in Rajas If he dies when Rajas is predominant in him? he is born among men who are attached to action. If he dies when Tamas is fully predominant in him? he takes birth in ignorant species such as cattle? birds? beasts or insects.He may take his birth amongst the dull and the stupid or the lowest grades of human beings. He need not take the body of an animal. This is the view of some persons.
