Prayers by the Demigods
tvam eka evāsya sataḥ prasūtis tvaṁ sannidhānaṁ tvam anugrahaś ca
tvan-māyayā saṁvṛta-cetasas tvāṁ paśyanti nānā na vipaścito ye
The efficient cause of this material world, manifested with its many varieties as the original tree, is You, O Lord. You are also the maintainer of this material world, and after annihilation you are the one in whom everything is conserved. Those who are covered by your external energy cannot see You behind this manifestation, but theirs is not the vision of learned devotees.
- SB 10.2.28
(Translation into English by H.H. Bhanu Swami)
Commentary by Shri Vishvanatha Chakravarthi Thakur:
„This tree arises from your energies.“ With this intention the verse is spoken.
„You are the only (eka) creator of this material tree which is real (sat). You are the annihilator (sannidhānaṁ) and the maintainer (anugrahaś).“
Krishna replied: „Oh devas! It is said that Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are the masters of this world, so why do you say that I am the creator?“
The next statement of the demigods answers this question. „Those whose minds are covered by Your māyā see Brahma and others as independent. Those whose minds are not covered see only You, and see Brahma and others as Your expansions only.“
