Translation

Translation

Under illusion you are now declining to act according to My direction. But, compelled by the work born of your own nature, you will act all the same, O son of Kuntī.

Oo, Kuntī poeg, illusiooni kütkes olles ei taha sa praegu Minu juhenduste kohaselt toimida, kuid omaenese loomusele alludes oled sa ikkagi sunnitud tegutsema just samal moel.

Purport

Purport

If one refuses to act under the direction of the Supreme Lord, then he is compelled to act by the modes in which he is situated. Everyone is under the spell of a particular combination of the modes of nature and is acting in that way. But anyone who voluntarily engages himself under the direction of the Supreme Lord becomes glorious.

Kui inimene keeldub tegutsemast Kõigekõrgema Jumala juhenduste kohaselt, on ta sunnitud tegutsema vastavalt guṇale, mille mõjuvallas ta asub. Iga inimene asub looduse guṇade teatud kombinatsiooni mõju all ning on sunnitud tegutsema vastavalt sellele. Kuid see, kes hakkab vabatahtlikult tegutsema vastavalt Kõigekõrgema Jumala juhendustele, on tõepoolest kiitust väärt.
