सात्त्विकस्यास्य भागस्य नागविद्याधरास्तमः ।
रजस्तु मुनयः सिद्धाः सत्त्वं देवा हरादयः ॥ १० ॥

sāttvikasyāsya bhāgasya nāgavidyādharāstamaḥ |
rajastu munayaḥ siddhāḥ sattvaṃ devā harādayaḥ || 10 ||

Again this quality of positive goodness comprises the Suras or gods Hara and others of the first class that are purely and truly good. The sages and Siddhas forming the second or intermediate class, are endued with a less share of goodness in them, while Nagas or Vidyadharas making the last class possess it in the least degree.
