My Understanding : Some people engage in actions that are unnecessary or unwise, leading to numerous problems. They are reluctant to share benefits or advantages with others, driven by a sense of selfishness and competition. This behavior stems from Rajoguna, which fuels relentless effort but often leaves individuals unrewarded for their hard work. The pursuit of desires and attachments blinds them to the true fruits of their actions, creating a cycle of dissatisfaction and struggle.
