BG 3.28

तत्त्ववित्तु महाबाहो गुणकर्मविभागयोः
गुणा गुणेषु वर्तन्त इति मत्वा न सज्जते

tattvavittu mahābāho guṇakarmavibhāgayoḥ
guṇā guṇeṣu vartanta iti matvā na sajjate

TRANSLATION

But he who knows the truth about the division of the Gunas and works, O mighty-armed one, through his knowledge that ‘Gunas operate on their products,’ is not attached.

PURPORT

But he who knows the truth about the divisions of the Gunas and their actions—namely, about the division among Sattva etc., on the one hand, and the divisions among their respective functionings on the other hand—it is he who, realising that Gunas, i.e., Sattva etc., are operating on their own products, is not attached to the actions of the Gunas, being convinced, ‘I am not the doer.’
