Translation

Sometimes the mode of goodness becomes prominent, defeating the modes of passion and ignorance, O son of Bharata. Sometimes the mode of passion defeats goodness and ignorance, and at other times ignorance defeats goodness and passion. In this way there is always competition for supremacy.

Kartais, o Bharatos sūnau, ima vyrauti dorybės guṇa, nugalėdama aistros ir neišmanymo guṇas. Kartais aistros guṇa nugali dorybę ir neišmanymą, o kitąsyk neišmanymas nugali ir dorybę, ir aistrą. Taip vyksta nuolatinė kova dėl pirmenybės.

Purport

When the mode of passion is prominent, the modes of goodness and ignorance are defeated. When the mode of goodness is prominent, passion and ignorance are defeated. And when the mode of ignorance is prominent, passion and goodness are defeated. This competition is always going on. Therefore, one who is actually intent on advancing in Kṛṣṇa consciousness has to transcend these three modes. The prominence of some certain mode of nature is manifested in one’s dealings, in his activities, in eating, etc. All this will be explained in later chapters. But if one wants, he can develop, by practice, the mode of goodness and thus defeat the modes of ignorance and passion. One can similarly develop the mode of passion and defeat goodness and ignorance. Or one can develop the mode of ignorance and defeat goodness and passion. Although there are these three modes of material nature, if one is determined he can be blessed by the mode of goodness, and by transcending the mode of goodness he can be situated in pure goodness, which is called the vasudeva state, a state in which one can understand the science of God. By the manifestation of particular activities, it can be understood in what mode of nature one is situated.

KOMENTARAS: Kai ima įsigalėti aistros guṇa, dorybės ir neišmanymo guṇos traukiasi. Kai padidėja dorybės guṇos įtaka, pralaimi aistra ir neišmanymas, o kai ima viešpatauti neišmanymo guṇa, ji nustelbia ir aistros, ir dorybės guṇas. Ši kova nenutrūksta. Todėl tas, kuris tvirtai nutarė puoselėti Kṛṣṇos sąmonę, turėtų iškilti aukščiau šių trijų guṇų. Kurios nors guṇos įsigalėjimas atsispindi žmogaus elgsenoje, veikloje, mityboje etc. Tai bus paaiškinta kituose skyriuose. Norint galima tam tikra praktika išsiugdyti savyje dorybės guṇą ir nugalėti neišmanymą bei aistrą. Lygiai taip norint galima išsiugdyti aistros guṇą, nugalint dorybę bei neišmanymą, arba neišmanymo guṇą, priverčiant pasitraukti dorybę ir aistrą. Nors egzistuoja tos trys materialios gamtos guṇos, ryžtingas žmogus gali įgyti dorybės guṇos palaiminimą ir, išsivadavus iš jos, atsidurti grynos dorybės būvyje, kuris vadinamas vasudevos būviu. Šiame būvyje tampa aiškus Dievo mokslas. Žmogaus poelgiai parodo, kokia gamtos guṇa jį valdo.
