B.G 7.25
नाहं प्रकाशः सर्वस्य योगमायासमावृतः। मूढोऽयं नाभिजानाति लोको मामजमव्ययम् ॥२५॥
I do not become visible to everyone, being covered by Yōga-māya, My capacity to overpower. This deluded world does not know Me, the unborn and the imperishable.
Gīta Bhāshya 7.25
The foolish does not know that 'Yōga-māya' is My capacity to overpower and is mine only.
अज्ञानं च मदिच्छया इत्याह - 'नाहम्' इति। योगेन सामर्थ्योपायेन। मायया च। मयैव मूढो नाभिजानाति। तथा हि पाद्मे -
Ignorance too is by My will only is conveyed by 'nāham' verse. 'Yogena' - by the capability of the Lord; 'Māyayā' - by His illusionary power. 'na-abhijānāti' - the foolish do not know that they are born from my power. Same is stated in the Padma Purana:
"आत्मनः प्रावृतिं चैव लोकचित्तस्य बन्धनम्। स्वसामर्थ्येन देव्या च कुरुते स महेश्वरः॥"
"The Supreme Lord conceals the 'ātman', the essence of the being, and binds the mind to the world by His own power and through His divine energy (Māya)."
इति च ॥२५॥
- stated thus as well.
