Verse 34

³⁴So, having set enmity among kings born as a burden on the earth, whose might was hemmed about with armies, as the wind sets fire among trees, he came to rest through their killing one another, himself without a weapon. ³⁵That same one, come down into this world of men by his own maya, took his pleasure, seated upon the height of the jewels among women, the Bhagavan, as though he were an ordinary man. ³⁶By whose smiles, spotless and winning, telling of unbridled feeling, and by whose bashful glances the god of love himself was struck down, so that he was bewildered and let his bow fall: those best of lovely women could not, by any of their arts, unsettle his senses.

³⁷The world takes him, unattached as he is, for one who is attached; for the unknowing measure him by themselves, seeing him going about as a man. ³⁸This is the lordship of the Lord: that standing within nature he is not joined to its strands, which are always in the self, as an understanding that rests in him is not. ³⁹The women, being simple, thought him theirs, bound to them in private and devoted to women, not knowing the measure of their husband, as the thoughts think the Lord is theirs.
