अवजानन्ति मां मूढा मानुषीं तनुमाश्रितम् | परं भावमजानन्तो मम भूतमहेश्वरम्
avajānanti māṃ mūḍhā mānuṣīṃ tanumāśritam . paraṃ bhāvamajānanto mama bhūtamaheśvaram
愚昧之人，不識我為萬有之主宰的至高本性，輕視我這取了人身者。
Not knowing My supreme nature as the Lord of all beings, foolish people disregard Me who have taken a human body.
愚昧之人只會挑剔我純粹的本性，就像患有黃疸病的人看所有東西都是黃色一樣。發燒的人甚至會覺得牛奶像印楝（neem）的精華一樣苦。那些希望透過肉眼看見我的人無法認識我。如果有人將海市蜃樓當作恆河，他能在那裡找到水嗎？那些缺乏辨別力和正確理解的愚昧之人，輕視我這以人身顯現者。我取此身是為了賜福我的奉獻者。這些愚昧之人不了解我更高的存在。他們不知道我是偉大的主宰，至高無上的「自性」（Self），光明、全知、純潔、永恆自由、不朽、智慧、萬有之「自性」。這些愚昧之人將我視為凡夫俗子，並總是輕視我。智者則了解我超越的本性和我顯現的榮耀。我遍佈、滲透並貫穿整個宇宙。我是這個世界、身體、心智、生命力及感官的支撐，然而仍有一些可憐的愚昧之人，他們說我不存在。因此，沒有任何地方沒有我，然而這些人卻無法看見我。看看這些人的不幸。他們的命運是可悲的。（參見《博伽梵歌》第四章第六節；第七章第二十四節）
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)
