प्रभवो न ह्यनादित्वाद्विद्यते परमात्मनः| पुरुषो राशिसञ्ज्ञस्तु मोहेच्छाद्वेषकर्मजः ||५३||

sanskrit

answering the question of Agnivesha about the origin of soul, teacher said: As the supreme soul is without a beginning (i.e., is eternal), no birth can be ascribed to it. Of course, the Purusha who represents the combination of 24 elements (rashipurusha) certainly has its origin born out of its deeds in the previous life due to its delusion, desire and aversion.
