ye - those who; mām - Me; bhajanti - worship; dāmpatye - for status in household life; tapasā - by penances; vrata - of vows; caryayā - and by the execution; kāma-ātmānaḥ - lusty by nature; apavarga - of liberation; īśam - the controller; mohitāḥ - bewildered; mama - My; māyayā - by the illusory, material energy.

Although I have the power to award spiritual liberation, lusty persons worship Me with penance and vows in order to get My blessings for their mundane family life. Such persons are bewildered by My illusory energy.
