Sanskrit Original
।।3.29।।प्रकृतेर्गुणेषु इन्द्रियादिषु सम्मूढाः। इन्द्रियाद्यभिमानाद्धि विषयादिषु सङ्गः। गुणकर्मसु विषयेषु कर्मसु चशब्दाद्या इन्द्रियाद्याश्च सत्त्वाद्याश्च शुभानि च। अप्रधानानि च गुणा निगद्यन्ते निरुक्तिगैः इत्यभिधानात्। सत्त्वाद्यङ्गीकारेगुणा गुणेषु 3।28 इत्ययुक्तं स्यात्।
They who are bewildered by the guṇas are deluded with regard to the indriyas. From identification with the indriyas arises attachment to sense-objects. Among guṇas, karmas, and objects, the indriyas, the śabda etc., sattva and other auspicious elements are mentioned, while the apradhāna is not counted among guṇas, as attested by etymology. Thus, accepting sattva and the like as parts of the guṇas accords with the statement about guṇas and guṇa-objects (3.28).
