क्रिययाऽक्रियया वापि यत्प्राप्तं तदसन्मयम् ॥ २५ ॥

na mameha kṛtenārtho nākṛteneha kaścana |
kriyayā'kriyayā vāpi yatprāptaṃ tadasanmayam || 25 ||

I get no real good by my acts here, nor lose anything by refraining from them. What I get by my acts or want of action, is all Nil and Null of Vanity or Vanities, and nothing to my purpose or liking.
