नादत्ते कस्यचित्पापं न चैव सुकृतं विभुः ।
अज्ञानेनावृतं ज्ञानं तेन मुह्यन्ति जन्तवः ॥
अज्ञानेनावृतं ज्ञानं तेन मुह्यन्ति जन्तवः ॥
हिन्दी अनुवाद
सर्वव्यापी परमात्मा न किसीके पापकर्मको और न शुभकर्मको ही ग्रहण करता है किन्तु अज्ञानसे ज्ञान ढका हुआ है, उसीसे सब जीव मोहित हो रहे हैं ॥
English
The all-pervading one takes neither anyone's wrongdoing nor anyone's good deed. Knowledge is covered by ignorance, and that is why living beings are deluded.
श्लोक का अर्थ
The divine does not collect anyone's good or bad actions. People get confused because ignorance covers their understanding.
संदर्भ और टिप्पणी
Krishna is still answering Arjuna on the battlefield, where duty feels impossible and every choice seems stained. He shifts the focus from action itself to the ignorance that distorts understanding, showing why people stay confused about responsibility.
