Passionate, desiring to obtain the reward of their actions, greedy, cruel, impure, moved by joy and sorrow, such an agent is said to be Rajasic.

Swami Sivananda

The agent who has attachment, who is desirous of the results of actions, covetous, cruel by nature, unclean, and subject to joy and sorrow, is declared to be possessed of rajas.

Swami Adidevananda

Follows the commentary of Ramanuja (Vishishtadvaita).

The agent, who is a man of passion, who craves the fruit of his actions, and is avaricious; who is injurious by nature, impure, and is overpowered by joy and grief—that agent is proclaimed to be of the Rajas (Strand).

Follows the commentary of Abhinavagupta (Kashmir Shaivism).

In one who is impulsive, greedy, looking for reward, violent, impure, and torn between joy and sorrow, it may be assumed that Passion is predominant.
