The Gita – Chapter 18 – Shloka 21

Shloka 21

However, Partha, if one can only see the multitude of things in this world in terms of their limitations and divisions, then this being possesses  the impure knowledge of the Rajas mode of nature. (This passionately natured person possesses knowledge that is derived from many theories, teachings, mental logic, and speculation that exist in this world).

किंतु जो ज्ञान अर्थात् जिस ज्ञान के द्वारा मनुष्य सम्पूर्ण भूतों में भिन्न-भिन्न प्रकार के नाना भावों को अलग-अलग जानता है, उस ज्ञान को तू राजस जान ।। २१ ।।
