Hindi Translation
जो सुख विषय और इन्द्रियों के संयोग से होता है, वह पहले—भोगकाल में अमृत के तुल्य प्रतीत होने पर भी परिणाम में विष के तुल्य है; इसलिये वह सुख राजस कहा गया है ॥३८॥
English Translation
The delight which follows from the contact of the senses with their objects is eventually poison-like, though appearing at first as nectar; hence it has been spoken of as Rajasika. (18.38)
