> Verse 342. He who having attained the Natural State, has

> transcended (even) the Sattva (pure state of mind) and has no sense of being a

doer of actions, may sometimes seem to have (the) mental mood of the quality of

Rajas (passion, dispute, restlessness), like a crystal mirror.(47)

> (47) The mind is always in one of the three states; these are called Sattva,

Rajas and Tamas; the first is the state of purity and clarity; the second is

that of agitation or passion; the third is that of dullness or

> inertia. The Mukta, who is in the egoless state, has no mind and none of

these states; but as a clean mirror reflects objects, the moods of

> others may have a transient, reflection in the (apparent) behavior of the

Mukta.
