Srimad Bhagavad Gita - Srila Bhakti Vaibhava Puri Maharaja

As fire is covered by smoke, mirror is covered by dust, and as the embryo
is enwrapped by the uterus, so also the living entity is enshrouded by different
degrees of this lust.
TEXT 39
avrtam jnanam etena
jnanino nitya-vairina
kama-rupena kaunteya
duspurenanalena ca
O son of Kunti, the true knowledge is enveloped by the insatiable fire of
desire, which is the constant foe of the wise.
TEXT 40
indriyani mano buddhir
asyadhisthanam ucyate

The senses, the mind and intelligence are the abode of lust. This lust
enwraps the real knowledge of the living entity and deludes him.

niyamya bharatarsabha
papmanam prajahi hy enam
jnana- vijnana-nasanam
Therefore, O scion of Bharata, having controlled the senses from the very
beginning, you should conquer this lust, the destroyer of real knowledge.
TEXT 42

indriyebhyah param manah
manasas tu para buddhir
yo buddheh paratas tu sah
The sense organs are said to be superior to matter, the mind is superior
to the sense organs, intelligence is superior to the mind and he (the soul) is
even superior to intelligence.

samstabhyatmanam atmana
jahi satrum maha-baho
kama-rupam durasadam
O mighty armed Arjuna, thus knowing the soul to be superior to
intelligence and making the mind steady with the knowledge of true self,
conquer the invincible enemy known as lust.
