Erläuterung
The tamasic doer is undisciplined, crude, stubborn, deceitful, spiteful, lazy, gloomy and given to putting things off. The list mixes moral faults with failures of energy and care. It portrays a person who neither acts well nor fully avoids action, but drifts and delays. Procrastination appearing alongside deceit is telling: the Gita treats inertia (tamas) as a serious obstacle, not a harmless habit. This completes the threefold picture of the doer.
