यस्मिन्निदं प्रोतमशेषमोतं पटो यथा तन्तुवितानसंस्थः । य एष संसारतरुः पुराणः कर्मात्मकः पुष्पफले प्रसूते ।। ११-१२-२१ ।।

sanskrit

Just as woven cloth rests on the expansion of lengthwise and crosswise threads, similarly the entire universe is expanded on the lengthwise and crosswise potency of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and is situated within Him. The conditioned soul has been accepting material bodies since time immemorial, and these bodies are like great trees sustaining one’s material existence. Just as a tree first blossoms and then produces fruit, similarly the tree of material existence, one’s material body, produces the various results of material existence. ।। 11-12-21 ।।

अदन्ति चैकं फलमस्य गृध्रा ग्रामेचरा एकमरण्यवासाः । हंसा य एकं बहुरूपमिज्यैर्मायामयं वेद स वेद वेदम् ।। ११-१२-२३ ।।

sanskrit

Those lusty after material enjoyment and dedicated to family life enjoy one of the tree’s fruits, and swanlike men in the renounced order of life enjoy the other fruit. One who with the help of the bona fide spiritual masters can understand this tree to be a manifestation of the potency of the one Supreme Truth appearing in many forms actually knows the meaning of the Vedic literature. ।। 11-12-23 ।।

sanskrit

With steady intelligence you should develop unalloyed devotional service by careful worship of the spiritual master, and with the sharpened ax of transcendental knowledge you should cut off the subtle material covering of the soul. Upon realizing the Supreme Personality of Godhead, you should then give up that ax of analytic knowledge. ।। 11-12-24 ।।
