तेनेयं नियतिः प्रौढा भावाभावदशामयी ।
ईदृश्येव स्थिरा दीर्घा मिथ्योत्थापि च दृश्यते ॥ १२ ॥

teneyaṃ niyatiḥ prauḍhā bhāvābhāvadaśāmayī |
īdṛśyeva sthirā dīrghā mithyotthāpi ca dṛśyate || 12 ||

Therefore there is an irresistible destiny, which is absolutely overruling; it is existence and inexistence itself, it is sedate and continuous, and all visible perturbations are but false appearances.
