नामूर्तेस्तेन सङ्गोऽस्ति नभसेव वपुष्मतः ।
मूर्तं च दृश्यते लग्नं तस्माद्दैवं न विद्यते ॥ १३ ॥

nāmūrtestena saṅgo'sti nabhaseva vapuṣmataḥ |
mūrtaṃ ca dṛśyate lagnaṃ tasmāddaivaṃ na vidyate || 13 ||

The immaterial destiny like vacuity has no connection with the material body. If it had a form or figure it would be visible (to some one or other); hence destiny is a nullity.
