पृथक्त्वेन तु यज्ज्ञानं नानाभावान्पृथग्विधान् | वेत्ति सर्वेषु भूतेषु तज्ज्ञानं विद्धि राजसम्
pṛthaktvena tu yajjñānaṃ nānābhāvānpṛthagvidhān . vetti sarveṣu bhūteṣu tajjñānaṃ viddhi rājasam
然而，须知那在万物之中，将各种不同实体视为彼此相异（即拥有各自独立的自我）的知识，是源自激性（Rajas）的。
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.].
“知识所见”：由于知识不能作为行动者，此处应理解为“凭借知识所见”。实体：指自我或灵魂。彼此相异：指在不同身体中，将它们视为不同的。这种由分离观念所引导的知识是激情的。它以分离之幕笼罩着多样的创造界，甚至迷惑了智者。由于激情的知识，众生显得彼此分离，对统一性的感知也随之丧失。这种在被创造的事物中看到多样性，并根据其形式和大小将其区分为大小不同的知识，是激情性质的，且带有污垢。拥有激情知识的人，处处看到多样性。他只看到众多。阿周那啊，现在吾将向你解释属于暗性（Tamas）的知识，以便你能够避免它。
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.
