Karika 25

सात्त्विक एकादशकः प्रवर्तते वैकृतादहङ्कारात्Alternative: वैकृतादहंकारात्
भूतादेस्तन्मात्रः स तामसस्तैजसादुभयम्॥ २५॥

Translation by Henry Thomas Colebrooke (1837): From consciousness, affected by goodness, proceeds the good elevenfold set: from it, as a dark origin of being, come elementary particles; both issue from that principle affected by foulness.
Translation by John Davies (1881): From consciousness modified (by 'goodness') proceed the eleven good principles; from this origin of being as 'darkness' come the subtle elements. Both emanations are caused by the 'foul' or 'active' mode.
Translation by Ganganath Jha (1896): The set of eleven proceeds from the modified principle of Egoism, and partakes of the attribute of Goodness. The primary elements are due to the Attribute of Darkness; from Foulness proceed both.
Translation by Nandalal Sinha (1915): The Sâttvika elevenfold set proceeds from the Vaikṛita Ahaṃkâra; from the Bhûtâdi Ahaṃkâra, the Tanmâtras; they are Tâmasa; from Taijasa Ahaṃkâra, proceed both.
Translation by Har Dutt Sharma (1933): From the Vaikṛta ego (proceeds) the group of eleven, characterised by Sattva. From the Bhūtādi ego (proceeds) the group of subtle elements which is Tāmasa. From the Taijasa ego (proceed) both.
Translation by Radhanath Phukan (1960): The Sāttvika eleven (mind and the sense-organs) proceed from the Vaikṛta Ahaṁkāra; the five Tanmātras (which are the original states of the five Bhūtas) proceed from that form of Ahaṁkāra which is known as Bhūtādi (the origin of Bhūta or matter); it is of the nature of Tamas (dark or heavy); both these changes are by the action of the Taijasa Ahaṁkāra.
Translation by Swami Virupakshananda (1995): The set of eleven abounding in sattva proceeds from the Vaikṛta form of I-Principle; the set of five primary elements proceed from the Bhūtādi form of I-Principle; they are Tāmasa. From the Taijasa form of I-Principle proceed both of them.
Translation by G. Srinivasan (recent): The expansive satvik state of eleven orders initiates acceleration through the oscillatory action and creates the dense or mass states and the vorticular or spinning states by using both the expansive and compressive stresses respectively.
