Srimad Bhagavad Gita -Ramanujacharya 444

It means that Material Nature or the Mūla-Prakrti, [the evolution of which] begins with the Cosmic Mind (Mahat) and culminates with the appearance of the five elements, together with the aggregate of sentient Jīvas instilled in it by Me, is the cause of existence. I am the seed giving father means that I instil the aggregate of sentient jīvas [into Prakrti] according to each one's individual Karma.

sattvaṃ-rajas-tama iti guṇāḥ prakṛti saṃbhavāḥ |
nibadhnanti mahābāho dehe dehinam avyayam || 5 ||

5. Sattva, Rajas and Tamas are the Gunas that arise from Prakrti. They cause the bondage of the
immutable Self to the body, O Arjuna.
