Chapter 18 - Verse 21

पृथक्क्षेत्र तु यज्ज्ञानं नानाभावान्पृथग्विधान् ।
वेत्ति सर्वेषु भूतेषु तञ्ज्ञानं विद्धि राजसम् ॥ २१ ॥

pṛthakkṣetra tu yajjñānaṃ nānābhāvānpṛthagvidhān .
vetti sarveṣu bhūteṣu tañjñānaṃ viddhi rājasam .. 21 ..


But that knowledge which by differentiation, sees in all the creatures various entities of distinct kinds, that knowledge know thou as Rajasic.
Read the commentary
By differentiation: regarding them as different in different bodies. Entities: Selfs. Which sees, etc.: This should be interpreted to mean ‘by which one sees,’ since knowledge cannot be an agent.
