Verse 3.113.6

नासि कर्ता किमेतासु क्रियासु ममता तव ।
एकस्मिन्विद्यमाने हि किं केन क्रियते कथम् ॥ ६ ॥

nāsi kartā kimetāsu kriyāsu mamatā tava |
ekasminvidyamāne hi kiṃ kena kriyate katham || 6 ||

You are no maker nor master of anything, then why deem any act or thing as your own (mamata—meity?) You know not what these existences are, and by whom and wherefore they are made.
