शोध संदर्भResearch context · not scriptureComparative Research Noteशोध टिप्पणी
जो कर्म और फलकी आसक्तिका त्याग करके आश्रयसे रहित और सदा तृप्त है, वह कर्मोंमें अच्छी तरह लगा हुआ भी वास्तवमें कुछ भी नहीं करता। 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.
