Erläuterung
Rajasic steadiness holds firmly to dharma, pleasure and wealth, three traditional aims of life, but does so out of attachment and craving for their fruits. Such firmness can be strong and persistent, yet it is bound to the desire for reward. The verse is subtle: even dharma can be pursued with a grasping attitude. The difference from sattvic steadiness lies not in the goals alone but in whether one holds them for their own sake or for what they bring.
