Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"The more we get material possession, our false egotism increases: "I have got this. I have got this. Who is more powerful than me?" Āḍhyo 'ham abhijān asmi ko 'sti mayā (BG 16.15). These are described in the Sixteenth Chapter. What is the meaning of this ahaṅkāra? Because vimūḍhātmā, that "I have got this motorcar. I have got this property," but within a second it can be finished. There is another, superior law. That he forgets. He sees actually, but he forgets. That is called vimūḍhātmā."
