Sanskrit, transliteration, word meanings, and translation for steady Bhāgavata reading.

Sanskrit

देहाद्युपाधेरनिरूपितत्वाद् भवो न साक्षान्न भिदात्मन: स्यात् । अतो न बन्धस्तव नैव मोक्ष: स्यातां निकामस्त्वयि नोऽविवेक: ॥ २२ ॥

Transliteration

dehādy-upādher anirūpitatvād bhavo na sākṣān na bhidātmanaḥ syāt ato na bandhas tava naiva mokṣaḥ syātām nikāmas tvayi no ’vivekaḥ
Synonyms
deha — of the body; ādi — and so on; upādheḥ — as material, designative coverings; anirūpitatvāt — because of not being determined; bhavaḥ — birth; na — not; sākṣāt — literal; na — nor; bhidā — duality; ātmanaḥ — for the Supreme Soul; syāt — exists; ataḥ — therefore; na — no; bandhaḥ — bondage; tava — Your; na eva — nor, in fact; mokṣaḥ — liberation; syātām — if they occur; nikāmaḥ — by Your sweet will; tvayi — concerning You; naḥ — our; avivekaḥ — erroneous discrimination.

Translation

Since it has never been demonstrated that You are covered by material, bodily designations, it must be concluded that for You there is neither birth in a literal sense nor any duality. Therefore You never undergo bondage or liberation, and if You appear to, it is only because of Your desire that we see You in that way, or simply because of our lack of discrimination.
