As I am indifferent towards those activities (such as creation etc) and am detached from the inequality that occurs as part of such creation, they do not bind me (by causing defects such as vaishamya (being inequal), nairghruNya (being unkind) in me).<\/p>\n ‘Never do those acts, Dhana\u00f1jaya! fetter Me; (for) I am, (or do sit) indifferent as one with no attachment for those acts.’<\/span><\/p>\n The diversities of creation etc, do not implicate Me, nor do they point to a charge of mercilessness being laid against Me; because, the reason for all differences such as devas, man etc., lies in the fact of embodied \u0101tmas, \u2014which are of a conscious (or intelligent) nature,\u2014 having, to their account, past deeds (which determine the varieties).<\/span><\/p>\n As for Myself, I am quite unconcerned as regard the differences, and I stand as a passive neutral.
