9.8.23

ye dehabhājastriguṇapradhānā guṇān vipaśyantyuta vā tamaśca /
yanmāyayā mohitacetasastvāṃ viduḥ svasaṃsthaṃ na bahiḥprakāśāḥ //

23. Those, who are dominated by the three gunas and have a body, perceive only the gunas or tamas, are alive to the objects of sense in the waking and dreaming states and are drowned in darkness in sleep. Being deprived of understanding by His maya, they do not know Thee present in themselves; for they have only external light.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
