*vwv.586/2 This (class of individual souls refers to) one who is born in this existence itself with the nature of the foremost one That class, called idaMprathamatA, (present birth having the natrure of the foremost one), arises from good practices (of the past)
*vlm.2 They were the first in their production, and are known as the idam-prathama - or the first class in their birth, whose long practice in a course of virtuous actions in prior states, has secured to them the property of goodness - satya-guna only

it is a pure recourse in this world,
proceeding in pure action
.
if
it is carried.on
as an abundantly conditioned saMsAra,
after a few existences
in this "guNa rich" state
there is Freedom
.
it is the karmic fruit of dispassionate action
.
*vlm .. the guna pívari or state of sound qualities,.. *vwv .. one possessed of considerable merit ...
*AS .. guNapIvarI perhaps translated as "Meritorious".
*AS.The reading of the*AB. commentary is mandatory(:-)) The VLM commentary makes a list of 14 categories, not noticing that two are duplicates*AB. commentary makes it clear • These 12 categories are of different kinds of births The first is prathamatA - may be translated as "prime category" described in verse 2 The second category is called guNapIvarI perhaps translated as "Meritorious" It is covered in verse 3 and the first line of 4 These are lives which have good intentions and actions but engage in numerous activities combined with desires and connected with the world These are "good people" who are not in a hurry to be liberated, but reach it after several births • The second line is introducing the third category and it is called "sa-sattvA" This is said to give one the power of deduction (anumAnadA) about proper and improper actions (kAryAkArya) totally based on matching outcomes (tAdRk-phala-pradAna.eka ) I would describe this as the "discerning category", where people have good intentions and follow proper analysis of their actions Hence they are on their way to liberation after numerous births.
*jd. AS reads #kArya as "proper action" I read it rather as kArya.Effect
*sv.4 They are full of the quality of purity and light (satva)
*vlm.4 The third grade is termed the sasatwá, or the state of substantiality of men of substance It is attended with like results, proportioned to the righteous and unrighteous acts of men, who may obtain their liberation after a hundred transmigrations of their souls on earth

Raama,

by those who attain the Self
if so
it is the result of affective conditioning in the saMsAra

o, rAma, therefrom comes what is called sa-sattva, "having the state of Being.So"
by those who attain the Self
so
if
there is a fancied saMsAra it is consequent on conditioning
.
* sa-sat.tva With-being.ness, with Suchness SV writes <satva> passim thruout VLM notes: ".. sasatwá, or the state of substantiality of men of substance It is attended with like results, proportioned to the righteous and unrighteous acts of men, who may obtain their liberation after a hundred transmigrations of their souls on earth." • Whatever does he mean?

*VA. (best of rAjasic kind) are called by these who obtained wisdom as soon-to-be-born??? they by desire of liberation in the moment of death obtain moksha
*AS. This finishes the description of the "rAjasI" - the active middle category These people are full of actions and take birth without acquiring detachment (a-viprakRSTa-janmA), the knowledgeable (kRtabuddhi) call it rAjasI Such a person is eligible for liberation (mokSa-yogyA) just by death (mRti-mAtreNa), if a desire for liberation arises (mumukSubhiH) In other words, these people are firmly embedded in rajas - the active quality and even without analytical knowledge, they might be capable of liberation by their strong desire for one!

saMdigdha-mokSA - Doubtful.of-Freedom - Some say "I am Free" and some say "I have been Liberated" - some say "Freedom" some say "Liberation" - some walk in the Way to honor the Guru - the Liberated are Free, but shy to say it! - tad asau procyate - that is what they call this - atyanta-tAmasI - extreme tAmasic - "Been down so long, it looks like up to me!"

*vlm .. the guna pívari or state of sound qualities,.. *vwv .. one possessed of considerable merit ...
*AS .. guNapIvarI perhaps translated as "Meritorious".
*AS.The reading of the*AB. commentary is mandatory(:-)) The VLM commentary makes a list of 14 categories, not noticing that two are duplicates*AB. commentary makes it clear • These 12 categories are of different kinds of births The first is prathamatA - may be translated as "prime category" described in verse 2 The second category is called guNapIvarI perhaps translated as "Meritorious" It is covered in verse 3 and the first line of 4 These are lives which have good intentions and actions but engage in numerous activities combined with desires and connected with the world These are "good people" who are not in a hurry to be liberated, but reach it after several births • The second line is introducing the third category and it is called "sa.sattvA" This is said to give one the power of deduction (anumAnadA) about proper and improper actions (kAryAkArya) totally based on matching outcomes (tAdRk.phala.pradAna.eka ) I would describe this as the "discerning category", where people have good intentions and follow proper analysis of their actions Hence they are on their way to liberation after numerous births.
*jd. AS reads #kArya as "proper action" I read it rather as kArya.Effect
*sv.4 They are full of the quality of purity and light (satva)
*vlm.4 The third grade is termed the sasatwá, or the state of substantiality of men of substance It is attended with like results, proportioned to the righteous and unrighteous acts of men, who may obtain their liberation after a hundred transmigrations of their souls on earth

there is a fancied saMsAra it is consequent on conditioning

*vlm The fifth grade is composed of men of a baser nature, called adhama - satwá by the wise, and who may possibly have their liberation, after a course of numberless births in different shapes and forms
*vwv ..., that class is declared for that reason as one possessed of a low disposition (adhamasattva) by sages
*vwv.589-90/5b-6ab-7a If it is engaged in various desires of the world, very much turbid (or sinful), and concerned in knowledge after thousands of births, producing the inference of righteousness and unrighteousness bestowing only corresponding (good or bad) results, that class is declared for that reason as one possessed of a low disposition (adhamasattva) by sages *vwv.591/7b-8a If it is doubtful of liberation even after an endless number of births transcending enumeration, then it is declared as extremely ignorant (atyantatAmasI)
