कर्मोंकी सिद्धि (फल) चाहनेवाले मनुष्य देवताओंकी उपासना किया करते हैं; क्योंकि इस मनुष्यलोकमें कर्मोंसे उत्पन्न होनेवाली सिद्धि जल्दी मिल जाती 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.
