34 (9), Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 18, Verse 34

यया तु धर्मकामार्थान्धृत्या धारयतेऽर्जुन |

प्रसङ्गेन फलाकाङ् क्षी धृति: सा पार्थ राजसी ||

yayā tu dharma-kāmārthān dhṛityā dhārayate ‘rjuna
prasaṅgena phalākāṅkṣhī dhṛitiḥ sā pārtha rājasī

भावार्थ:

परंतु हे पृथापुत्र अर्जुन! फल की इच्छावाला मनुष्य जिस धारण शक्ति के द्वारा अत्यंत आसक्ति से धर्म, अर्थ और कामों को धारण करता है, वह धारण शक्ति राजसी है॥34॥

Translation

he steadfast will by which one holds to duty, pleasures, and wealth, out of attachment and desire for rewards, is determination in the mode of passion.
