English translation of verse 5.17.21:

The gopis that had been Personified Vedas said: We offer our respectful obeisances to Lord Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He is the cause of wakefulness, dream, and sleep, but nothing outside of Himself is the cause of Him.

Pushed by Him, the modes of material nature act. The mahat-tattva, senses, and demigods have no power over Him. He is a blazing fire and all things that exist are sparks from Him.
