Verse 3.114.21

अतः संकल्पसिद्धेयं संकल्पेनैव नश्यति ।
येनैव जाता तेनैव वह्निज्वालेव वायुना ॥ २१ ॥

ataḥ saṃkalpasiddheyaṃ saṃkalpenaiva naśyati |
yenaiva jātā tenaiva vahnijvāleva vāyunā || 21 ||

Therefore the world being the production of desire or will, has its extinction with the privation of desires; for that which comes the growth of a thing, causes its extinction also; as the wind which kindles the fire, extinguishes it likewise.
