Purport

In the Fourteenth Chapter the three divisions of the modes of material nature were elaborately described. In that chapter it was said that the mode of goodness is illuminating, the mode of passion materialistic, and the mode of ignorance conducive to laziness and indolence. All the modes of material nature are binding; they are not sources of liberation. Even in the mode of goodness one is conditioned. In the Seventeenth Chapter, the different types of worship by different types of men in different modes of material nature were described. In this verse, the Lord says that He wishes to speak about the different types of knowledge, workers and work itself according to the three material modes.

Neljateistkümnendas peatükis selgitati üksikasjalikult materiaalse looduse kolme guṇat. Seal öeldi, et vooruse guṇa on valgustav, kire guṇa materialistlik ja teadmatuse guṇa laiskust ja loidust põhjustav. Ükski materiaalse looduse guṇa ei too elusolendile vabanemist, nad seovad teda. Isegi vooruse guṇas viibides on elusolend ikkagi tingimustest sõltuv. Seitsmeteistkümnendas peatükis kirjeldati erinevate objektide teenimist materiaalse looduse erinevate guṇade mõjuvallas viibivate inimeste poolt. Selles värsis ütleb Jumal, et Ta soovib rääkida erinevat laadi teadmistest, töötajatest ja tööst, mis kuuluvad ühte või teise materiaalse looduse guṇasse.
