Neither does the Lord create agency nor actions for the world, nor union with the fruits of actions; rather, it is Nature that acts.

Swami Sivananda

The Self does not create agency or any objects of desire for anyone, nor does it associate with the results of actions; rather, it is Nature that acts.

Swami Gambirananda

Follows the commentary of Shankara (Advaita).

The Lord of the body (the Self, i.e., the Jiva) does not create agency, nor actions, nor union with the fruits of actions in relation to the world of selves; only the inherent tendencies function.

Swami Adidevananda

Follows the commentary of Ramanuja (Vishishtadvaita).

The Lord (Self) acquires neither the state of being a creator of the world, nor the actions, nor the connection with the fruits of their actions. But it is the inherent nature [in It] that exerts.

Dr. S. Sankaranarayan

Follows the commentary of Abhinavagupta (Kashmir Shaivism).

The Lord of this universe has not ordained activity, nor any incentive thereto, nor any relation between an act and its consequences; all this is the work of Nature.

Shri Purohit Swami

परमेश्वर मनुष्योंके न कर्तापनकी, न कर्मोंकी और न कर्मफलके साथ संयोगकी रचना करते हैं; किन्तु स्वभाव ही बरत रहा है।

Swami Ramsukhdas

लोकमात्र के लिए प्रभु (ईश्वर) न कर्तृत्व, न कर्म और न कर्मफल के संयोग को रचता है। परन्तु प्रकृति (सब कुछ) करती है।

Swami Tejomayananda
