Verse 3.64.31

चित्स्पन्दन भवति कर्म तदेव दैवं चित्तं तदेव भवतीह शुभाशुभादि ।
तस्माज्जगन्ति भुवनानि भवन्ति पूर्वं भूत्वा निजाङ्गकुसुमानि तरोरिवाद्यात् ॥ ३१ ॥

citspandana bhavati karma tadeva daivaṃ cittaṃ tadeva bhavatīha śubhāśubhādi |
tasmājjaganti bhuvanāni bhavanti pūrvaṃ bhūtvā nijāṅgakusumāni tarorivādyāt || 31 ||

Our actions are the efforts of our minds, and shape our good or bad destinies according to the merit or demerit of the acts. The fates and chances of all in the existing world, are the fruits and flowers of their past acts, and even of those done in prior Kalpas; and this is called their destiny.
