Tap a word to reveal its meaning. Say each one aloud as you go.
In English
An action undertaken through delusion, with no regard to the spiritual implications, the capacity of the doer, or the potential harm that may follow, is assumed to be a product of ignorance.
Translated by Shri Purohit Swami
That action which is undertaken from delusion, without regard for the consequences, loss, injury, and one's own ability, is declared to be Tamasic (dark).
Translated by Swami Sivananda
