Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 14, Verse 10

Krishna said
रजस्तमश्चाभिभूय सत्त्वं भवति भारत।रजः सत्त्वं तमश्चैव तमः सत्त्वं रजस्तथा ॥14.10॥

rajastamaścābhibhūya sattvaṃ bhavati bhāratarajaḥ sattvaṃ tamaścaiva tamaḥ sattvaṃ rajastathā

Meaning

Sometimes sattva rises by overpowering rajas and tamas; sometimes rajas overpowers sattva and tamas; and sometimes tamas overpowers sattva and rajas.

हिंदी में अर्थ

कभी सत्त्व, रजस और तमस को दबाकर बढ़ता है; कभी रजस, सत्त्व और तमस को दबा देता है; और कभी तमस, सत्त्व और रजस पर हावी हो जाता है।
