Verse 2.11.32

दुष्कृते क्षयमापन्ने परमार्थविचारणे ।
काकतालीययोगेन बुद्धिर्जन्तोः प्रवर्तते ॥ ३२ ॥

duṣkṛte kṣayamāpanne paramārthavicāraṇe |
kākatālīyayogena buddhirjantoḥ pravartate || 32 ||

Upon expurgation of former demerits, the understanding turns of itself to take cognizance of spiritual matters, like the simultaneous flight of the crow towards the falling fruit of the palm.
