Giảng giải

When passion (rajas) grows strong, certain signs appear: greed, constant activity, the starting of new projects, restlessness and longing. These describe a familiar condition, the mind that cannot sit still, always wanting more and always beginning something new. The word ārambha, undertaking, recurs in the Gita, where the wise are later said to give up all self-driven undertakings. The signs are not condemned so much as identified. Recognising them lets one notice when rajas is in control and choose not to be carried along by it.
