Various Creations (sṛṣṭi-vistāra) - Verse 257

Sūta said: There are mobile and immobile as well as changing and unchanging created beings. Whatever activities they had in a previous creation they resume the same activities in succeeding creations. They have the same nature, etc. whether savage or timid, kind or cruel, righteous or evil, true or false. Urged by their attributes they adopt and take pleasure in their respective qualities.
