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 ।।
