vṛttibhir lakṣaṇaṁ proktaṁ
vṛttibhir lakṣaṇaṁ proktaṁ
yathāpāṁ prakṛtiḥ parā
Citta is known to have purity, changelessness and peacefulness as its qualities by nature, just like the nature of pure water.
The qualities like purity are found everywhere in the citta of the body. Qualities of purity, since it is a reflection of the Lord, devoid of changes such as inaction or agitation, and devoid of passion and other emotions, are known as the natural modes of the citta. It is just like the original nature of water, which has an excellent quality. Pure water, without foam or waves, is sweet to the taste and peaceful. Just as water from contact with earth and other elements because impure, full of foam and waves, so citta attached to inferior objects becomes polluted from contact with lower consciousness (cetanā).

mahat-tattvād vikurvāṇād
bhagavad-vīrya-sambhavāt
kriyā-śaktir ahaṅkāras
tri-vidhaḥ samapadyata
vaikārikas taijasaś ca
tāmasaś ca yato bhavaḥ
manasaś cendriyāṇāṁ ca
bhūtānāṁ mahatām api
From the transformation of mahat-tattva, induced by the power of the Lord, ahaṅkāra endowed with jñāna, kriya, and dravya śaktis appeared in three forms, vaikārika (sattva), taijasa (rajas) and tāmas, from which the mind, senses and the five gross elements appeared.
This verse describes the characteristics before the appearance of ahaṅkāra. Kriya-śakti represents also jñāna-śakti and dravya-śakti, since ahaṅkāra possesses of these śaktis. From vaikārika, taijasa and tāmasa ahaṅkāra arise the mind, senses and elements respectively.
