Bhagavata Purana — Skandha 11 — Chapter 11
SB 11 11.1
श्री-भगवान् उवाच बद्धो मुक्त इति व्याख्या गुणतो मे न वस्तुतः गुणस्य माया-मूलत्वान् न मे मोक्षो न बन्धनम्
śrī-bhagavān uvāca baddho mukta iti vyākhyā guṇato me na vastutaḥ guṇasya māyā-mūlatvān na me mokṣo na bandhanam
The Blessed Lord said: 'Bound' and 'free' are designations of me made in terms of the guṇas, not in reality; since the guṇas have māyā as their root, there is for me neither liberation nor bondage.

Grief and delusion, pleasure and pain, and the acquiring of a body come about through māyā; as a dream is (only) an appearance to the self, so transmigration is not real.

Know, Uddhava, that knowledge and ignorance are my two forms, primordial, fashioned by my māyā, which effect the liberation and bondage of embodied beings.

सुपर्णाव् एतौ सदृशौ सखायौ यदृच्छयैतौ कृत-नीडौ च वृक्षे एकस् तयोः खादति पिप्पलान्नम् अन्यो निरन्नो ऽपि बलेन भूयान्

SB 11 11.7
आत्मानम् अन्यं च स वेद विद्वान् अपिप्पलादो न तु पिप्पलादः यो ऽविद्यया युक् स तु नित्य-बद्धो विद्या-मयो यः स तु नित्य-मुक्तः

He who does not eat the fig knows himself and the other, being wise; but not the one who eats the fig. He who is joined with ignorance is eternally bound; he who consists of knowledge is eternally free.

When objects of the senses are being grasped by the senses, and the modes (of nature) by the modes, the wise one, who is free of change, does not make an 'I' out of it.
AI translation rendered from the Sanskrit, not a published edition

na stuvīta na nindeta kurvataḥ sādhv asādhu vā vadato guṇa-doṣābhyāṃ varjitaḥ sama-dṛṅ muniḥ

na kuryān na vadet kiñcin na dhyāyet sādhv asādhu vā ātmārāmo 'nayā vṛttyā vicarej jaḍa-van muniḥ
He should do nothing, say nothing, think nothing, whether good or bad; delighting in the self, with this manner of living the sage should wander about like a dull, inert thing.

A cow whose milk has been milked out, an unchaste wife, a body dependent on another, bad offspring, and wealth not given to a worthy recipient—and, my dear, speech devoid of Me: he who keeps these is wretched with sorrow upon sorrow.
