Verse 4.39.43

सति दीप इवालोकः सत्यर्क इव वासरः ।
सति पुष्प इवामोदः स्वतः संपद्यते जगत् ॥ ४३ ॥

sati dīpa ivālokaḥ satyarka iva vāsaraḥ |
sati puṣpa ivāmodaḥ svataḥ saṃpadyate jagat || 43 ||

(Verse). There being the lamp, there is its light also; and the sun shining brings the day with him. Where there is the flower, there is its odour likewise; so where there is the living soul, there is the light or knowledge of the world in it.
