তথাপি বিষয়ের স্বভাব—করে মহা-অন্ধ ।
সেই কর্ম্ম করায়, যাতে হয় ভববন্ধ ॥
tathāpi viṣayera svabhāva—kare mahā-andha |
sei karma karāya, yāte haya bhava-bandha ||
(Caitanya-caritāmṛta: 3.6.199)
”Still, the nature of viṣaya [i.e., objects of the senses and the inclinations for them impressed in the mind] makes one severely blind. It causes one to perform karma whereby worldly bondage accrues.”
