Srimad Bhagavad Gita -Ramanujacharya

Chapter-14 Guṇa-traya-vibhāg Yogaḥ

Commentary When the light of enlightenment reveals the truth of things as they really are, through all the gateways of knowledge such as the eyes, ears, nose, touch, and taste; then one should know that Sattva operates. lobhaḥ pravṛttir āraṃbhaḥ karmaṇām aśamaḥ spṛhā | rajasyetāni jāyante vivṛddhe bharatarṣabha || 12 || 12. Greed, activity, undertaking of projects, restlessness and craving — these arise, O Arjuna (Bull of the Bharatas), when Rajas is ascendant.
