हर्षस्तुष्टिविस्मयश्व विनय: साधुवृत्तिता । शान्तिकर्मणि शुद्धिश्व शुभा बुद्धिर्विमोचनम्
harṣas tuṣṭi-vismayaś ca vinayaḥ sādhu-vṛttitā | śānti-karmaṇi śuddhiś ca śubhā buddhir vimocanam | viśvāsaḥ lajjā titikṣā tyāgaḥ pavitratā alasyarahitatā komalatā moha-abhāvaḥ prāṇiṣu dayā paiśunya-avarjanam harṣaḥ santoṣaḥ agarvitā vinayaḥ sad-vyavahāraḥ śānti-karmaṇi śuddha-bhāvena pravṛttiḥ uttamā buddhiḥ āsakti-vimuktiḥ jagad-bhoga-vairāgyam brahmacaryam sarva-tyāgaḥ nirmamatā phala-kāmanā-abhāvaḥ dharmasya nityānuvartanam—etāni sarvāṇi sattva-guṇasya kāryāṇi
伐由说道：“喜悦、知足、惊叹、谦卑与高尚的行止；于和平之业中保持清净；吉祥而明辨的智慧；以及解脱——并且还有信、惭愧、忍耐、舍离、清净、不懈怠、柔和、无迷妄、怜悯众生与不作诽谤；又有欢欣、满足、无傲慢、谦逊、善行、以清净之意从事息争之务、上妙的理解、离于执著、对世间享乐的淡泊、梵行（brahmacarya）、一切形式的舍弃、无占有、无求果报，以及不间断地奉行达摩——这一切，皆为萨埵之德（sattva-guṇa）的果与相。”

Educational Q&A
The verse lists the characteristic outcomes of sattva-guṇa: clarity and harmony expressed as joy, humility, compassion, purity of intention, disciplined conduct, dispassion, non-possessiveness, and action without craving for results—culminating in liberation-oriented living.
Vāyu (the wind-god) is instructing the listener by enumerating ethical and psychological qualities, identifying them as the manifestations of sattva among the three guṇas, thereby guiding conduct toward peace and freedom from attachment.
