मनुष्य न तो कर्मोंका आरम्भ किये बिना निष्कर्मताको प्राप्त होता है और न कर्मोंके त्यागमात्रसे सिद्धिको ही प्राप्त होता है। आदत और परिणाम एक चक्र बनाते हैं: जो बार-बार किया जाता है, वह अगली प्रवृत्ति को मजबूत करता है। यह पंक्ति कर्म को उसी चक्र के रूप में देखती है, भाग्य के आकस्मिक प्रहार के रूप में नहीं।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
