गुणाः सृजन्ति कर्माणि गुणोऽनुसृजते गुणान् । जीवस्तु गुणसंयुक्तो भुङ्क्ते कर्मफलान्यसौ ।। ११-१०-३१ ।।

sanskrit

The material senses create material activities, either pious or sinful, and the modes of nature set the material senses into motion. The living entity, being fully engaged by the material senses and modes of nature, experiences the various results of fruitive work. ।। 11-10-31 ।।

यावत्स्याद्गुणवैषम्यं तावन्नानात्वमात्मनः । नानात्वमात्मनो यावत्पारतन्त्र्यं तदैव हि ।। ११-१०-३२ ।।

sanskrit

As long as the living entity thinks that the modes of material nature have separate existences, he will be obliged to take birth in many different forms and will experience varieties of material existence. Therefore, the living entity remains completely dependent on fruitive activities under the modes of nature. ।। 11-10-32 ।।

यावदस्यास्वतन्त्रत्वं तावदीश्वरतो भयम् । य एतत्समुपासीरंस्ते मुह्यन्ति शुचार्पिताः ।। ११-१०-३३ ।।

sanskrit

The conditioned soul who remains dependent on fruitive activities under the material modes of nature will continue to fear Me, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, since I impose the results of one’s fruitive activities. Those who accept the material concept of life, taking the variegatedness of the modes of nature to be factual, devote themselves to material enjoyment and are therefore always absorbed in lamentation and grief. ।। 11-10-33 ।।

sanskrit

When there is agitation and interaction of the material modes of nature, the living entities then describe Me in various ways such as all-powerful time, the Self, Vedic knowledge, the universe, one’s own nature, religious ceremonies and so on. ।। 11-10-34 ।।

उद्धव उवाच गुणेषु वर्तमानोऽपि देहजेष्वनपावृतः । गुणैर्न बध्यते देही बध्यते वा कथं विभो ।। ११-१०-३५ ।।

sanskrit

Śrī Uddhava said: O my Lord, a living entity situated within the material body is surrounded by the modes of nature and the happiness and distress that are born of activities caused by these modes. How is it possible that he is not bound by this material encirclement? It may also be said that the living entity is ultimately transcendental and has nothing to do with the material world. Then how is he ever bound by material nature? ।। 11-10-35 ।।
