Shloka 23
जनक–पराशर संवादः — वर्ण-गोत्र-धर्मविचारः
Janaka–Parāśara: Varṇa, Gotra, and Dharma Inquiry
Devanagari script
न सुखेन न दुःखेन कदाचिदपि वर्तते । सेयं भावात्मिका भावांस्त्रीनेतान् परिवर्तते
Translation
Ia tidak pernah berada dalam suka, dan tidak pula dalam duka. Buddhi yang bersifat sebagai keadaan batin ini berputar mengikuti tiga keadaan itu; apabila tamas mengatasi dan diselubungi oleh moha, ia tidak bersatu dengan suka dan tidak juga dengan duka—melainkan tenggelam dalam tidur, kemalasan, dan kelesuan. Demikianlah buddhi yang berwatak keadaan ini sentiasa menuruti tiga keadaan tersebut.
