It is worth noting the phrase sva-māyā-vaibhavān, "the manifestations of His own māyā." The word vaibhava means "majesty, abundance, the manifestation of power"; and māyā is called here not delusion but the manifestation of majesty. Sva, "one's own," is also added; and the meaning of this word was discussed when reading the Jābāla-darśana (10.2), where the Gītā's verse mama māyā, "My māyā," was cited (7.14).
Let us repeat briefly: what belongs to someone is not nonexistent; and what has an owner is not explained as a pure misunderstanding. Let us add what this very passage yields. If māyā is vaibhava, "the manifestation of majesty," then it is not corruption and not error. It is that by which He shows Himself; and the world, read this way, turns out to be not an obstruction to sight but its very object.
The Vaiṣṇava side holds to this and so does not teach flight from the world. Her rule is yukta-vairāgya, "befitting renunciation," discussed when reading the Jābāla-darśana (4.22): to make use of everything fit, for Him. The phrase bhāsate sva-sva-tejasā, "shines by His own light," is worth noting as the opposite of the usual description of the world.
The world shines by another's light: the moon by the sun's, things by reflection. He shines by His own; and in this lies the whole difference between the source and what is manifested. Let us add that the Gītā says the same, listing what is not needed there: "neither sun nor moon nor fire illumines that; having reached which one does not return — that is My supreme abode" (15.6).
