हृदये च वनान्ते च क्षोभाक्षोभेषु कारणम् ।
यथा स्पन्दोऽचिरात्स्पन्दस्तथा त्रिजगतामिह ॥ ५४ ॥

hṛdaye ca vanānte ca kṣobhākṣobheṣu kāraṇam |
yathā spando'cirātspandastathā trijagatāmiha || 54 ||

As a sudden fear or passion is the cause of palpitation of the heart, so an effort or desire of the mind is the mobile force (or primum mobile) for the causation of the three worlds.
