Explicação
Krishna describes the fruits of action according to the qualities. Well-done action, which belongs to clarity (sattva), yields a pure result. Action driven by passion (rajas) bears the fruit of pain, since restless desire is never fully satisfied and its gains are mixed with loss. Action shaped by inertia (tamas) leads to ignorance, deepening the very darkness from which it came. The verse shows that each quality reproduces itself through action. One acts from a state, and the result reinforces that state. Breaking such cycles requires changing the quality from which one acts.
