In the absence of a clear understanding of the ultimate purpose of human life, the intellect that focuses solely on immediate gains and worldly prosperity is referred to as the Rajasic intellect.
This type of intellect misinterprets the concepts of virtue and vice, leading individuals to view popular practices as virtuous and anything that does not serve selfish interests as vice, including spiritual pursuits.
The confusion extends to understanding what actions should be taken and which should be avoided. The situation is even more dire for the Tamasic intellect.
Characterized by laziness, ignorance, and distortion, a Tamasic intellect remains shrouded in darkness, misunderstanding virtue as vice and vice as virtue. It approaches all worldly engagements with a fundamentally misguided perspective.
