śrī bhagavānuvācatrividhā bhavati śraddhā dehināṃ sā svabhāvajā|sāttvikī rājasī caiva tāmasī ceti tāṃ śrṛṇu||17.2||
Meaning (English)
17.2 The Lord said 'Threefold is the faith among all' embodied beings. And it arises from their 'inborn nature.' What is called Svabhava is the state unie to one's own nature. It is the special taste or predilection caused by previous subtle impressions, 'Vasanas.' To whatever one's predilection is directed, there faith is born in respect of it. For 'faith' is zeal or eagerness about any means in the belief that it is the way of action to achieve one's own desired object. Vasana (subtle impress
