न हि दैवेन सिध्यन्ति कार्याण्येकेन सत्तम । न चापि कर्मणैकेन द्वाभ्यां सिद्धस्तु योगत:

Transliteration

na hi daivena sidhyanti kāryāṇy ekena sattama | na cāpi karmaṇaikena dvābhyāṃ siddhas tu yogataḥ ||

Translation

Wika ni Kripa: “O pinakamainam sa mga tao, hindi nagtatagumpay ang mga gawain sa tadhana lamang; ni hindi rin sa pagsisikap ng tao lamang. Ang tagumpay ay tunay na nakakamit sa wastong pagsasanib ng dalawa.”
