तस्मिन्ब्रह्मण्यद्वितीये केवले परमात्मनि ।
ब्रह्मरुद्रौ च भूतानि भेदेनाज्ञो ऽनुपश्यति ॥ ५२ ॥ tasmin brahmany advitiye
kevale paramatmani
brahma-rudrau ca bhutani
bhedenajno 'nupasyati
tasmin-Him; brahmani-the Supreme Brahman; advitiye-without a second; kevale-being one; paramatmani-the Supersoul; brahma-rudrau-both Brahma and Siva; ca-and; bhutani-the living entities; bhedena-with separation; ajnah-one who is not properly conversant; anupasyati-thinks.
TRANSLATION
The Lord continued: One who is not in proper knowledge thinks that demigods like Brahma and Siva are independent, or he even thinks that the living entities are independent.
PURPORT
The living entities, including Brahma, are not independently separated, but are counted within the marginal potency of the Supreme Lord. The Supreme Lord, being the Supersoul in every living entity, including Lord Brahma and Lord Siva, is directing everyone in the activities of the material modes of nature. No one can act independently of the sanction of the Lord, and therefore, indirectly, no one is different from the Supreme Person, and certainly Brahma and Rudra, who are incarnations of the material modes of nature, passion and ignorance, are not.
