स्वसंकल्पकृताः सर्वे देवासुरनरादयः ।
स्वसंकल्पोपशमने शाम्यन्त्यस्नेहदीपवत् ॥ १२ ॥

svasaṃkalpakṛtāḥ sarve devāsuranarādayaḥ |
svasaṃkalpopaśamane śāmyantyasnehadīpavat || 12 ||

It is divine will that has brought the gods, the demigods and all mankind into existence; and it is by the cessation of the (creative) will, that they cease to exist as the lamp is extinguished for want of its oil.
