All actions are wrought in all cases by the qualities of Nature alone. He whose mind is deluded by egoism thinks, "I am the doer."

Swami Sivananda

While actions are being done in every way by the gunas (qualities) of Nature, one who is deluded by egoism thinks, "I am the doer."

Swami Gambirananda

Follows the commentary of Shankara (Advaita).

Actions are being performed in every way by the Gunas of Prakrti; he whose nature is deluded by egoism, however, thinks, 'I am the doer.'

Swami Adidevananda

Follows the commentary of Ramanuja (Vishishtadvaita).

The actions are performed part by part by the strands of Prakriti; yet, the person, having his self (mind) deluded with egoity, imagines, 'I am the sole doer.'

Dr. S. Sankaranarayan

Follows the commentary of Abhinavagupta (Kashmir Shaivism).

Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature. It is only the ignorant man who, misled by personal egotism, says, "I am the doer."

Shri Purohit Swami

सम्पूर्ण कर्म सब प्रकारसे प्रकृतिके गुणोंद्वारा किये जाते हैं; परन्तु अहंकारसे मोहित अन्तःकरणवाला अज्ञानी मनुष्य 'मैं कर्ता हूँ' -- ऐसा मानता है।

Swami Ramsukhdas

सम्पूर्ण कर्म प्रकृति के गुणों द्वारा किये जाते हैं, अहंकार से मोहित हुआ पुरुष,  "मैं कर्ता हूँ"  ऐसा मान लेता है।
