तदस्य सेच्छा नेच्छा वा ब्रह्मैवात्र न संशयः ।
इच्छा न जायते ज्ञस्यावश्यमेवानु वा नवा ॥ २९ ॥

tadasya secchā necchā vā brahmaivātra na saṃśayaḥ |
icchā na jāyate jñasyāvaśyamevānu vā navā || 29 ||

Verily the will or desire and the unwillingness of the wise, are actuated by and proceed from Brahma himself; they have no uncontrollable or inordinate desire, but pursue their own course, and have nothing new or inordinary to wish for.
