Explication

Taking hold of his own nature, Krishna sends forth again and again this whole host of beings. They are helpless, avaśa, under the power of nature. The verse contrasts divine freedom with creaturely bondage. Beings are shaped by forces they do not control: their past actions, their dispositions and the qualities that compose them. Krishna works through nature as an instrument. The question that naturally arises, whether such activity binds him, is answered in the next verse.
