विष्णोः सुराणां गुरूणां नित्या जीवस्य तन्त्रता |
यत्तु तस्यान्यतन्त्रत्वं तज्ञात्वा विनिवर्तते ||
viśnōh surāṇām gurūṇām nityā jīvasya tantratā
yattu tasyānyatantravam tajnātvā vinivartatē
– || bhāgavata tātparya nirṇaya 3-27-8 ||
Jeeva is eternally under the control of Narayana, the devatas and Gurus; One who realizes this shall be relieved from the bondage of those who are lower than him.
– Trailokyacharya Srimadanandatirtha Bhagavatpada in Bhagavata Tatparya Nirnaya 3–27–8
