English translation of verse 5.16.25:
The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: Attraction to the modes of material nature lead to bondage, but attraction to the Supreme Personality of Godhead leads to liberation. Thus the mind may be the cause of bondage or the cause of liberation. The wise therefore control the mind and remain unattached to the world of matter.
