Verse 7.70.19

प्रवर्तन्ते निवर्तन्ते नेह कार्याणि कानिचित् ।
द्रव्यकालक्रियाद्योता चितिस्तपति केवलम् ॥ १९ ॥

pravartante nivartante neha kāryāṇi kānicit |
dravyakālakriyādyotā citistapati kevalam || 19 ||

There is no action nor any creation, that is ever produced from anything or ever reduced to nothing; but all things and actions are the spontaneous growth of the intellect only; together with our ideas of space and time.
