4.17.12
kāraṇena vinā kāryaṃ na bhavediti niścayaḥ |
kavibhiḥ kathitaṃ śāstre sthāyībhāvo rasaḥ kila ||
No action can come out of no cause; this is all clear. The poets say that the sexual power and pleasure, is the feeling, the mental attitude that corresponds; and that is the only thing, that lasts. And we have no desire for that.
