सात्त्विकैकादशकः प्रवर्तते वैकृतादहङ्कारात्। भूतादेस्तन्मात्रः सतामसस्तैजसादुभयम् ॥२५॥
sāttvikaikādaśakaḥ pravartatē vaikr̥tādahaṅkārāt। bhūtādēstanmātraḥ satāmasastaijasādubhayam ॥25॥
[सात्त्विकः एकादशकः प्रवर्तते वैकृतात् अहङ्कारात्। भूतादेः तन्मात्रः सः तामसः तैजसात् उभयम्॥
sāttvikaḥ = driven by satwik quality; ēkādaśakaḥ = are the eleven; pravartatē = evolves from; vaikr̥tāt = deformations; ahaṅkārāt = from ego; bhūtādēḥ = the elements; tanmātraḥ = from tan-matras; saḥ = these are; tāmasaḥ = driven by tamasik qualities; taijasāt = driven by rajasik qualities; ubhayam = comes forth both;]
From the various deformations of the ego driven by sāttvik qualities evolve the eleven. The elements evolve from sensations (tanmātra) driven by the tāmasa quality. The rājas quality drives both (the eleven and five sensations).
The five subtle sensations give rise to five elements. The indriyas are made up of sāttvik and rājas qualities, and devoid of tāmasa quality. The sensations and the five elements are made up of rājas and tāmasa qualities, and devoid of Saatwik quality.
