The Gita – Chapter 18 – Shloka 34

Shloka 34

 परन्तु हे पृथापुत्र अर्जुन ! फल की इच्छा वाला मनुष्य जिस धारण शक्त्ति के द्वारा अत्यन्त आसक्त्ति से धर्म, अर्थ और कामों को धारण करता है, वह धारण शक्त्ति राजसी है ।। ३४ ।।

But Arjuna, he who uses his steadiness only for the purpose of gaining fruits and rewards in areas that involve both his personal, financial money matters and religious rituals, possesses the steadiness of passion. This impure determination and stability of the mind is common to those who have the RAJAS GUNA within them.
