अवजानन्ति मां मूढा मानुषीं तनुमाश्रितम् | परं भावमजानन्तो मम भूतमहेश्वरम्
avajānanti māṃ mūḍhā mānuṣīṃ tanumāśritam . paraṃ bhāvamajānanto mama bhūtamaheśvaram
Ne connaissant pas Ma nature suprême, en tant que Seigneur de tous les êtres, les personnes insensées Me méprisent, Moi qui ai pris un corps humain.
Not knowing My supreme nature as the Lord of all beings, foolish people disregard Me who have taken a human body.
Les ignorants, aveuglés par l'illusion, ne perçoivent que la forme humaine du Seigneur et Le méprisent, car ils ne reconnaissent pas Sa nature divine suprême et Sa seigneurie sur tous les êtres. Ils manquent de discernement pour voir le Soi au-delà du corps physique.
Fools only find fault with My pure nature? just as a man with jaundiced eyes finds all objects to be yellow. The man who is suffering from fever finds even milk as bitter as the essence of neem. Those who wish to behold Me by means of the physical eyes cannot know Me. If anyone takes the mirage for the Ganga? can he find any water thereFools who do not have discrimination and right understanding despise Me? dwelling in the human form. I have taken this body to bless My devotees. These fools have no knowledge of My higher Being. They do not know that I am the great Lord? the Supreme SElf? the luminous? omniscient? pure? ever free? immortal? wise? the Self of all. These fools take Me for an ordinary mortal and despise Me always. The wise know both My transcendental nature and the glory of My manifestation.I pervade? permeate and interpenetrate the universe. I am the support of this world? body? mind? lifeforce and the senses and yet there are some miserable fools? who say that I do not exist. There is thus not a place anywhere where I am not? and yet these people are not able to see Me. Look at the misfortune of these people. Pitiable is their lot (Cf.IV.6VII.24)
