महाभारतः mahābhārataḥ - book-12, chapter-211, verse-26

प्रत्यक्षं ह्येतयोर्मूलं कृतान्तैतिह्ययोरपि ।
प्रत्यक्षो ह्यागमोऽभिन्नः कृतान्तो वा न किंचन ॥२६॥

26. pratyakṣaṁ hyetayormūlaṁ kṛtāntaitihyayorapi ,
pratyakṣo hyāgamo'bhinnaḥ kṛtānto vā na kiṁcana.

26. pratyakṣam hi etayoḥ mūlam kṛtāntaitihyayor api
pratyakṣaḥ hi āgamaḥ abhinnaḥ kṛtāntaḥ vā na kiñcana

26. pratyakṣam hi etayoḥ kṛtāntaitihyayor api mūlam hi
āgamaḥ pratyakṣaḥ abhinnaḥ vā kṛtāntaḥ na kiñcana

26. Indeed, direct perception (pratyakṣa) is the root of both fate (kṛtānta) and tradition (itihya). Indeed, scriptural tradition (āgama) is non-different from direct perception, or else fate (kṛtānta) is nothing at all.
