यत्तु कृत्स्नवदेकस्मिन्कार्ये सक्तमहैतुकम्।अतत्त्वार्थवदल्पं च तत्तामसमुदाहृतम् ॥18.22॥

Meaning

The knowledge that clings to one small thing as if it were everything, without reason, missing the truth and narrow, is called tamasic.

हिंदी में अर्थ

जो ज्ञान किसी एक छोटी चीज़ को ही सब कुछ मानकर उसी से चिपका रहता है, बिना तर्क के, सत्य से दूर और संकीर्ण, वह तामसिक कहलाता है।
