।।7.12।। जो भी सात्त्विक (शुद्ध), राजसिक (क्रियाशील) और तामसिक (जड़) भाव हैं, उन सबको तुम मेरे से उत्पन्न हुए जानो; तथापि मैं उनमें नहीं हूँ, वे मुझमें हैं।।
7.12 ये whatever? च and? एव even? सात्त्विकाः pure? भावाः natures? राजसाः active? तामसाः inert? च and? ये whatever? मत्तः from Me? एव even? इति thus? तान् them? विद्धि know? न not? तु indeed? अहम् I? तेषु in them? ते they? मयि in Me.Commentary This is a world of the three Gunas? viz.? Sattva (purity)? Rajas (passion) and Tamas (inertia). All sentient and insentient objects are the aggregate of these three alities of Nature. One ality predominates in them and the predominant ality imparts to the
Non-dualism. The individual self and Brahman are one. The world is appearance (maya). Liberation through knowledge.
।।7.12।।तथा जो सात्त्विक सत्त्वगुणसे उत्पन्न हुए भाव पदार्थ हैं और जो राजस रजोगुणसे उत्पन्न हुए एवं तामस तमोगुणसे उत्पन्न हुए भाव पदार्थ हैं उन सबको अर्थात् प्राणियोंके अपने कर्मानुसार ये जो कुछ भी भाव उत्पन्न होते हैं उन सबको तू मुझसे ही उत्पन्न हुए जान। यद्यपि वे मुझसे उत्पन्न होते हैं तथापि मैं उनमें नहीं हूँ अर्थात् संसारी मनुष्योंकी भाँति मैं उनके वशमें नहीं हूँ परंतु वे मुझमें हैं यानी मेरे वशमें हैं मेरे अधीन हैं।

7.12 Those things that indeed are made of (the ality of ) sattva, and those things that are made of (the ality of) rajas and tamas, know them to have sprung from Me alone. However, I am not in them; they are in Me!
