"Nature is said to be the cause of all material causes and effects, whereas the living entity is the cause of the various sufferings and enjoyments in this world."

Thus he meets with good and evil among various species." https://vedy.online/en/bg/13/21/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/13/22/

Bhagavad-Gītā 13.23 & 13.25 & 13.29

"Yet in this body there is another, a transcendental enjoyer, who is the Lord, the supreme proprietor, who exists as the overseer and permitter, and who is known as the Supersoul." "Some perceive the Supersoul within themselves through meditation, others through the cultivation of knowledge, and still others through working without fruitive desires." "One who sees the Supersoul equally present everywhere, in every living being, does not degrade himself by his mind. Thus he approaches the transcendental destination." https://vedy.online/en/bg/13/23/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/13/25/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/13/29/

Bhagavad-Gītā 14.5,9,10

"Material nature consists of three modes – goodness, passion and ignorance. When the eternal living entity comes in contact with nature, O mighty-armed Arjuna, he becomes conditioned by these modes." "O son of Bharata, the mode of goodness conditions one to happiness; passion conditions one to fruitive action; and ignorance, covering one’s knowledge, binds one to madness." "Sometimes the mode of goodness becomes prominent, defeating the modes of passion and ignorance, O son of Bharata. Sometimes the mode of passion defeats goodness and ignorance, and at other times ignorance defeats goodness and passion. In this way there is always competition for supremacy." https://vedy.online/en/bg/14/5/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/14/9/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/14/10/
