Explicación
Rajasic people like foods that are bitter, sour, salty, very hot, sharp, dry and burning. These bring pain, grief and illness. The list describes foods that excite and overstimulate, matching the restless energy of rajas (passion). The verse points to a pattern seen throughout the Gita: what is pleasant in the moment often brings suffering later. Choosing food for intensity alone mirrors a life driven by craving for stimulation.
