Verse 7.72.6

प्रलयोन्मुखतां याते ब्राह्मे संकल्पनेन्धने ।
सिद्धानां गतयः शेमुरिद्धानामर्चिषामिव ॥ ६ ॥

pralayonmukhatāṃ yāte brāhme saṃkalpanendhane |
siddhānāṃ gatayaḥ śemuriddhānāmarciṣāmiva || 6 ||

The gross desire or the crude will of Brahma, being now at its end at the approach of dissolution; there was an utter stop, of the actions and motions of the siddhas, as that of the flame of fire before its extinction.
