    यतः प्रवृत्तिर्भूतानां येन सर्वमिदं ततम् । स्वकर्मणा तमभ्यर्च्य सिद्धिं विन्दति मानवः ॥

    yataḥ pravṛttir bhūtānāṁ yena sarvam idaṁ tatam | sva-karmaṇā tam abhyarcya siddhiṁ vindati mānavaḥ ||

    By doing one's own work as worship of Him from whom all beings arise and by whom all this is pervaded, a person attains perfection.
