The Divine Teacher says

Aharastwapi Sarvasya, Trividho Bhavati Priyah |
Yagya stapastatha Danam, Tesham Bhedamimam Shrunu
Meaning: What kind of food one likes is also of three types according to one's own intrinsic nature. Similarly, yagya , tapa and alms are also of three types (satvika, rajasika and tamasika). Let me tell you their (broad) differences.

- In the Gita (17 | 7)
