कार्यकारणभावोऽयमीदृशो जन्मकर्मणोः ।
अकारणमुपायान्ति सर्वे जीवा परात्पदात् ॥ ४ ॥

kāryakāraṇabhāvo'yamīdṛśo janmakarmaṇoḥ |
akāraṇamupāyānti sarve jīvā parātpadāt || 4 ||

All beings emanate originally without any cause, from the source of the divine essence; and then their actions become the secondary cause of continuous transmigrations.
