Bhagavad Gita 3.40

Karma Yoga

इन्द्रियाणि मनो बुद्धिरस्याधिष्ठानमुच्यते | एतैर्विमोहयत्येष ज्ञानमावृत्य देहिनम् ||

indriyāṇi mano buddhir asyādhiṣhṭhānam uchyate etair vimohayatyeṣha jñānam āvṛitya dehinam

English

The senses, mind, and intelligence are the sitting places of this lust, which veils the knowledge of the living entity and bewilders him.

हिन्दी

इन्द्रिय, मन और बुद्धि इसके (काम के) आधार (निवास स्थान) कहे जाते हैं, इनके द्वारा यह (काम) ज्ञान को ढककर देहधारी को मोहित कर देता है।
