Synonyms
yathā eva — just as; sūryaḥ — the sun; pihitaḥ — covered; chāyayā — by the shade; svayā — its own; chāyām — the shade; ca — and; rūpāṇi — visible forms; ca — also; sañcakāsti — illuminates; evam — similarly; guṇena — by the material quality (of false ego); apihitaḥ — covered; guṇān — the qualities of matter; tvam — You; ātma-pradīpaḥ — self-luminous; guṇinaḥ — the possessors of these qualities (the living entities); ca — and; bhūman — O almighty one.

O almighty one, just as the sun, though hidden by a cloud, illuminates the cloud and all other visible forms as well, so You, although hidden by the material qualities, remain self-luminous and thus reveal all those qualities, along with the living entities who possess them.
