Laborious jugglery of words is a gift of the illusory energy

The froggish philosophers

who put forward the argument that the Supreme Lord is overpowered by the

material mode of goodness are themselves illusioned by the same material

energy, although they think of themselves as liberated souls. They

support their arguments by a false and laborious jugglery of words, which

is a gift of the same illusory energy of the Lord. But the poor froggish

philosophers, due to a false sense of knowledge, cannot understand the

situation.
