“ ‘The Supreme Personality of Godhead, the supreme controller, is always full of transcendental bliss and is accompanied by the potencies known as hlādinī and samvit. The conditioned soul, however, is always covered by ignorance and embarrassed by the threefold miseries of life. Thus he is a treasure house of all kinds of tribulations.’ ”
This verse is found in Śrīdhara Svāmī’s Bhāvārtha-dīpikā (1.7.6), wherein he quotes Śrī Viṣṇu Svāmī.
