The Prakriti or nature, under My supervision, creates
all animate and inanimate objects; and thus the creation keeps on going, O Arjuna. (See also 14.03) (9.10)
The ignorant ones, not knowing My supreme natures as
the great Lord of all beings, disregard Me when I assume human form. (9.11)
The ignorant persons having false hopes, false actions,
and false knowledge, possess the delusive (or Taamasika) qualities (See 16.04-18) of
friends and demons. (9.12)
But great souls, O Arjuna, who possess divine
qualities (See 16.01-03) know Me as the (material and efficient) cause of creation and imperishable, and worship
Me single-mindedly. (9.13)
