Krishna Katha - Verse for meditation - 27/05/2013

SB 1.7.5

yaya sammohito jiva
atmanam tri-gunatmakam
paro 'pi manute 'nartham
tat-krtam cabhipadyate

yaya—by whom; sammohitah—illusioned; jivah—the living entities; atmanam—self; tri-guna-atmakam—conditioned by the three modes of nature, or a product of matter; parah—transcendental; api—in spite of; manute—takes it for granted; anartham—things not wanted; tat—by that; krtam ca—reaction; abhipadyate—undergoes thereof.

Due to this external energy, the living entity, although transcendental to the three modes of material nature, thinks of himself as a material product and thus undergoes the reactions of material miseries.

Srila Suta Gosvami
