Incredible Wisdom of Bharat!

Vaisesika Sūtra 1.1.31

कारणसामान्ये द्रव्यकर्मणां कर्माकारणमुक्तम् ॥३१॥

kāraṇasāmānyē dravyakarmaṇāṁ karmākāraṇamuktam ॥31॥

[कारण सामान्ये द्रव्य कर्मणां कर्म अकारणम् उक्तम्॥
kāraṇa = cause; sāmānyē = of generality; dravya = substances; karmaṇāṁ = effect; karma = action; akāraṇam = in non-cause; uktam = it is said;॥]

The substances are caused because of the effect of generality, and it is spoken as though action is not the cause.

॥इति प्रथम आह्निकः॥

Thus ends the first chapter

ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय। तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय। मृत्योर्माऽमृतं गमय। ॐ शान्ति: शान्ति: शान्ति: ॥ - बृहदारण्यकोपनिषद् 1.3.28
"Ōm! Lead me from the unreal to the real, from darkness to light, and from death to immortality. Let there be peace, peace, and peace. Ōm!" - Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 1.3.28
