कार्यस्य तत्कारणतां प्रयातं वक्तीति यस्तस्य विमूढबोधः ।
कैर्नाम तत्कार्यमुदेति तस्मात्स्वैः कारणाद्यैः सहकारिरूपैः ॥ ३५ ॥

kāryasya tatkāraṇatāṃ prayātaṃ vaktīti yastasya vimūḍhabodhaḥ |
kairnāma tatkāryamudeti tasmātsvaiḥ kāraṇādyaiḥ sahakārirūpaiḥ || 35 ||

Those who assign a certain cause to some effect or event, betray their ignorance of the true cause; for what is it that produces the effect, except the very thing by some of its accessory powers.
