O my Lord, sages freed from the influence of the three modes of material nature — sages such as the four Kumāras [Sanat, Sanaka, Sanandana and Sanātana] — are able to think of You, who are concentrated knowledge. But how can an ignorant person like me think of You?
Srimad Bhagavata Purana
श्रीमद्भागवतमहापुराणम्
मूल श्लोकः
ये देहभाजस्त्रिगुणप्रधाना गुणान् विपश्यन्त्युत वा तमश्च । यन्मायया मोहितचेतसस्ते विदुः स्वसंस्थं न बहिःप्रकाशाः
ye dehabhājastriguṇapradhānā guṇān vipaśyantyuta vā tamaśca | yanmāyayā mohitacetasaste viduḥ svasaṃsthaṃ na bahiḥprakāśāḥ
