Verse 6.21.23

भुशुण्ड उवाच ।
ब्रह्मन्नियतिरेषा हि दुर्लङ्घ्या पारमेश्वरी ।
मयेदृशेन वै भाव्यं भाव्यमन्यैस्तु तादृशैः ॥ २३ ॥

bhuśuṇḍa uvāca |
brahmanniyatireṣā hi durlaṅghyā pārameśvarī |
mayedṛśena vai bhāvyaṃ bhāvyamanyaistu tādṛśaiḥ || 23 ||

Bhusunda replied, O venerable sir! It is because of the inseparable and overruling power of destiny, which no body can prevent or set aside;that I am doomed to live in this wise and others in their particular modes of life.
