स्वं लोकं न विदुस्ते वै यत्र देवो जनार्दन: ।
आहुर्धूम्रधियो वेदं सकर्मकमतद्विद: ॥ ४८ ॥

svaṁ lokaṁ na vidus te vai
yatra devo janārdanaḥ
āhur dhūmra-dhiyo vedaṁ
sakarmakam atad-vidaḥ

TRANSLATION

Those who are less intelligent accept the Vedic ritualistic ceremonies as all in all. They do not know that the purpose of the Vedas is to understand one’s own home, where the Supreme Personality of Godhead lives. Not being interested in their real home, they are illusioned and search after other homes.
