Synonyms
kāla-cakram — the wheel of eternal time; bhrami — revolving automatically; tīkṣṇam — very sharp; sarvam — all; niṣkarṣayat — driving; jagat — the world; sva-tantram — independent, not caring for the so-called scientists and philosophers; abudhasya — of one who does not know (this principle of time); iha — in this material world; kim asat-karmabhiḥ bhavet — what is the use of engaging in temporary fruitive activities.

Translation

[Nārada Muni had spoken of a physical object made of sharp blades and thunderbolts. The Haryaśvas understood this allegory as follows.] Eternal time moves very sharply, as if made of razors and thunderbolts. Uninterrupted and fully independent, it drives the activities of the entire world. If one does not try to study the eternal element of time, what benefit can he derive from performing temporary material activities?

ŚB 6.5.19 · गीता प्रेस पाठ

कालचक्रं भ्रमिस्तीक्ष्णं सर्वं निष्कर्षयज्जगत्। स्वतन्त्रमबुधस्येह किमसत्कर्मभिर्भवेत्॥ १९

हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

यह काल ही एक चक्र है। यह निरन्तर घूमता रहता है। इसकी धार छुरे और वज्रके समान तीखी है और यह सारे जगत‍्को अपनी ओर खींच रहा है। इसको रोकनेवाला कोई नहीं, यह परम स्वतन्त्र है। यह बात न जानकर कर्मोंके फलको नित्य समझकर जो लोग सकामभावसे उनका अनुष्ठान करते हैं, उन्हें उन अनित्य कर्मोंसे क्या लाभ होगा?॥ १९॥

स्रोत-खंड सीमा · यह हिन्दी अंश गीता प्रेस डिजिटल पाठ में इस दृश्य श्लोक-इकाई के बाद आता है; इसे स्वतः एक-से-एक टीका या संस्करण-समानता नहीं माना गया है।
