Rahular Itihasa / M. N. Dutt · Shanti Parva Chapter 340 · Verse 68
Sanskrit Original
सोऽहं क्रियावतां पन्थाः पुनरावृत्तिदुर्लभः। यो यथा निर्मितो जन्तुर्यस्मिन् यस्मिश्च कर्मणि॥ प्रवृत्तौ वा निवृत्तौ वा तत्फलं सोऽश्नुते महत्। एष लोकगुरुर्ब्रह्मा जगदादिकरः प्रभुः॥
That Soul is myself. The path of those who follow acts is fraught with return. One cannot, by that path, reach the place whence there is no return. Different creatures have been created with different objects. Some are intended for the Path of Action and some for that of Renunciation. One enjoys the the reward, according to the path that he follows. This Brahman is the lord of all the worlds. Endued with power, it is he who creates the universe.
