यत्तु प्रत्युपकारार्थं फलमुद्दिश्य वा पुनः | दीयते च परिक्लिष्टं तद्दानं राजसं स्मृतम्
yattu pratyupakārārthaṃ phalamuddiśya vā punaḥ . dīyate ca parikliṣṭaṃ taddānaṃ rājasaṃ smṛtam
然而,那期望回報,或懷著對結果的渴望,且勉強不情願地施予的布施,被認為是羅闍性 (Rajas) 之行。
But the gift which is given expecting reciprocation, or again, with a desire for its result, and which is given grudgingly,- that is considered to be born of rajas.
為了未來獲得回報、公開讚揚、或某種無形獎賞、天堂享樂而施予的布施,以及為了洗清罪孽而施予的布施,都屬於羅闍性 (Rajas) 的範疇。若施者在布施後感到心生懊悔,這也屬於羅闍性 (Rajas) 的布施。
Charity or gift that is given in the hope that it will be returned in the future and praised in public or that the gift will bring some unseen reward or heavenly pleasure is passionate. If a man makes a gift to a Brahmana or a Sannyasin with the hope that all his sins will be washed away? this is also a Rajasic gift. If a man is grieved at heart after making the gift this is also a gift of passionate nature.
