In 3 verses

Chapter 1 2 of 18 chapters Chapter 18
  1. 3.40

    इन्द्रियाणि मनो बुद्धिरस्याधिष्ठानमुच्यते

    dehinam — the embodied soul

    The senses, the mind and the understanding are said to be its dwelling place. Through these it deludes the embodied one, clouding knowledge.

  2. 14.5

    सत्त्वं रजस्तम इति गुणाः प्रकृतिसंभवाः

    dehe — in the body

    Clarity, restlessness and inertia — these strands, born of nature, bind the imperishable embodied one to the body.

  3. 14.7

    रजो रागात्मकं विद्धि तृष्णासङ्गसमुद्भवम्

    dehinam — the embodied soul

    Know restlessness to be of the nature of craving, arising from thirst and attachment. It binds the embodied one by attachment to action.
