14.2
sattvaṃ laghu prakāśakam iṣṭam upaṣṭambhakaṃ calaṃ ca rajaḥ /
guru varaṇakam eva tamaḥ pradīpavac cārthato vṛttiḥ //
Sattva is held to be buoyant and illuminating; rajas is stimulating and active; / tamas is indeed heavy and obscuring; and like a lamp, their functioning is for the purpose [of spirit].
