3.1.44
ajasya janmotpatha-nāśanāya karmāṇy akartur grahaṇāya puṃsām /
nanv anyathā ko 'rhati deha-yogaṃ paro guṇānām uta karma-tantram //
44. The birth or Avatara of the Unborn Lord is only intended for the destruction of those that stray from the path of Right, and the activities of the One that has nothing to do are intended to instruct men in the course of their duties. Indeed, otherwise, who having transcended the influence of gunas, would be fit for (welcome) association with a corporeal frame and the (extensive) course of (laborious) activity?
