atha yad duḥkhasaṁyuktam aprītikaram ātmanaḥ | pravṛttaṁ raja ity eva tad asaṁrabhya cintayet ||

Translation

Бхишма сказал: «Когда возникает мысль или побуждение, сопряжённое со страданием и не приносящее внутренней радости самому себе, следует признать это лишь волнением раджаса. Без смятения и без цепляния размышляй об этом так и понимай его таким, каково оно есть».
