यस्य यद्रसिकं चित्तं तत्तथा तस्य गच्छति ।
ब्रह्मैकरसिकं तेन मनस्तत्तां समश्नुते ॥ ४२ ॥

yasya yadrasikaṃ cittaṃ tattathā tasya gacchati |
brahmaikarasikaṃ tena manastattāṃ samaśnute || 42 ||

The minds of men are inclined towards the particular objects of their fancy; hence those that believe and delight in God, take him as the origin of all things that appear unto them.
