TEXT 119

ajña jīva nija-'hite' 'ahita' kari' māne
garva cūrṇa haile, pāche ughāḍe nayane


SYNONYMS

ajña jīva—the ignorant living entity; nija-hite—his personal benefit; ahita kari' māne—considers a loss; garva cūrṇa haile—when pride is cut down; pāche—afterward; ughāḍe nayane—the eyes open.


TRANSLATION

An ignorant living being does not recognize his actual profit. Because of ignorance and material pride, he sometimes considers profit a loss, but when his pride is cut down he can actually see his true benefit.
