पृथक्त्वेन तु यज्ज्ञानं नानाभावान्पृथग्विधान् |
वेत्ति सर्वेषु भूतेषु तज्ज्ञानं विद्धि राजसम् ||21||

But that knowledge which sees multiplicity of beings of different kinds due to their separateness, know that knowledge to be rajasic.
- Pṛthaktvena: Separately.
- Nānābhāvān: Various entities.
- Pṛthagvidhān: Of different types.
- Vetti: Knows.
Rajasic knowledge represents partial understanding that sees only separation without underlying unity. While functional on a practical level, this perspective misses the deeper connections between beings, leading to action motivated by self-interest rather than universal welfare.
