Lord Śiva said: O Goddess, you have now seen the illusory energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the unborn master of everyone. Although I am one of the principal expansions of His Lordship, even I was illusioned by His energy. What then is to be said of others, who are fully dependent on māyā?
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
O Goddess! You have now seen the illusory energy of the unborn Supreme Lord, by which I, the Lord’s principal expansion, have been bewildered. What then is to be said of others, who are fully under the control of māyā?
