सत्त्वं ज्ञानं रजः कर्म तमोऽज्ञानमिहोच्यते । गुणव्यतिकरः कालः स्वभावः सूत्रमेव च ।। ११-२२-१३ ।।

sanskrit

In this world the mode of goodness is recognized as knowledge, the mode of passion as fruitive work, and the mode of darkness as ignorance. Time is perceived as the agitated interaction of the material modes, and the totality of functional propensity is embodied by the primeval sūtra, or mahat-tattva. ।। 11-22-13 ।।
