Adhyaya 47 — Brahma’s Awakening and the Ninefold Scheme of Creation
अष्टमोऽनुग्रहः सर्गः सात्त्विकस्तामसश्च सः ।
पञ्चैते वैकृताः सर्गाः प्राकृतास्तु त्रयः स्मृताः ॥
aṣṭamo 'nugrahaḥ sargaḥ sāttvikastāmasaśca saḥ / pañcaite vaikṛtāḥ sargāḥ prākṛtāstu trayaḥ smṛtāḥ
第八种为“摄受(anugraha)之造化”;其兼具清净(sāttvika)与昏暗(tāmasa)之性。此五种为变异(vaikṛta)之造化,而本原(prākṛta)之造化则被忆念为三种。

Even ‘grace’ in the world appears through guṇas; outcomes can elevate (sattva) or bind (tamas). The ethical implication is to cultivate sattva so that anugraha is received/expressed as clarity rather than inertia.
Sarga: it explicitly summarizes the prākṛta (3) and vaikṛta (5) groupings within the ninefold scheme.
The pairing of sāttvika and tāmasa within anugraha hints that ‘help’ or ‘boons’ can function either as liberation-aids or as further entanglements, depending on the recipient’s guṇa-condition.
