14.13 Darkness, inertness, heedlessness and delusion  these arise when Tamas is predominant, O Arjuna.


English Translation of Sanskrit Commentary By Sri Shankaracharya's

Whatever result is achieved even after death, that is also owing to attachment and desire; every-thing is certainly caused by the alities. By way of showing this the Lord says:
