रजस्तमोभ्यां मलिनं त्वशुद्ध -मज्ञानजं सत्त्वगुणेन रिक्तम् ।मनस्तमोदोषसमन्वितत्वा -ज्जडत्वमोहालसताप्रमादैः ।तिरस्कृतं सन्न तु वेत्ति वास्तवंपदार्थतत्त्वं ह्युपलभ्यमानम् ॥ ३५९ ॥
In plain words
Tainted by rajas and tamas, impure, born of ignorance, and devoid of sattva, the mind is dominated by inertia, delusion, laziness, and heedlessness. Overshadowed thus, it fails to recognize the ultimate truth, even though it lies directly before experience.
Close to the Sanskrit
Defiled by rajas and tamas, impure, born of ignorance, and devoid of sattva, the mind—being endowed with the defect of tamas and overshadowed by dullness, delusion, laziness, and negligence—does not indeed know the true reality of the object even though it is being experienced.
