स्नेहाधिष्ठानवर्त्यग्निसंयोगो यावदीयते । ततो दीपस्य दीपत्वमेवं देहकृतो भवः । रजःसत्त्वतमोवृत्त्या जायतेऽथ विनश्यति ।। १२-५-७ ।।

sanskrit

A lamp functions as such only by the combination of its fuel, vessel, wick and fire. Similarly, material life, based on the soul’s identification with the body, is developed and destroyed by the workings of material goodness, passion and ignorance, which are the constituent elements of the body. ।। 12-5-7 ।।
