Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 1 - Chapter 1 - Verse 7
Sanskrit:
सास्वतन्त्रा न कल्पासीद्योगक्षेमं ममेच्छती ।ईशस्य हि वशे लोको योषा दारुमयी यथा ॥ ७ ॥
ITRANS:
sāsvatantrā na kalpāsīdyoga-kṣemaṁ mamecchatīīśasya hi vaśe lokoyoṣā dārumayī yathā
Translation:
She wanted to look after my maintenance properly, but because she was not independent, she was not able to do anything for me. The world is under the full control of the Supreme Lord; therefore everyone is like a wooden doll in the hands of a puppet master.
