Translation

Lord Viṣṇu told King Pṛthu: My dear King, the constant change of this material world is due to the interaction of the three modes of material nature. The five elements, the senses, the demigods who control the senses, as well as the mind, which is agitated by the spirit soul — all these taken together comprise the body. Since the spirit soul is completely different from this combination of gross and subtle material elements, My devotee who is connected with Me in intense friendship and affection, being completely in knowledge, is never agitated by material happiness and distress.

हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

राजन्! गुणप्रवाहरूप आवागमन तो भूत, इन्द्रिय, इन्द्रियाभिमानी देवता और चिदाभास—इन सबकी समष्टिरूप परिच्छिन्‍न लिंगशरीरका ही हुआ करता है; इसका सर्वसाक्षी आत्मासे कोई सम्बन्ध नहीं है। मुझमें दृढ़ अनुराग रखनेवाले बुद्धिमान् पुरुष सम्पत्ति और विपत्ति प्राप्त होनेपर कभी हर्ष-शोकादि विकारोंके वशीभूत नहीं होते॥ १२॥
