Sri Ramanuja

18.27 The ‘passionate’ doer is one who aspires for fame; ‘who seeks the fruits of his acts’ is one who longs for the fruits of his acts; the ‘greedy’ is he who does not spend the wealth required for the act; the ‘harmful’ is one, who while acting, hurts others; the ‘impure’, is one who lacks the purity required for the act; who is moved by ‘delight and grief’ in war etc., is one who is elated or depressed by success or failure in victory (or the opposite) — a doer who fulfils these conditions is declared to be Rajasika.
