योगवासिष्ठः       yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-5, chapter-89, verse-25

स्वभाव एष वस्तूनां स्वतःसिद्धिर्हि नान्यतः ।
नियतिं न जहात्येव शशाङ्क इव शीतताम् ॥ २५ ॥
svabhāva eṣa vastūnāṃ svataḥsiddhirhi nānyataḥ ,
niyatiṃ na jahātyeva śaśāṅka iva śītatām 25
25. svabhāvaḥ eṣaḥ vastūnām svataḥ-siddhiḥ hi na
anyataḥ niyatiṃ na jahāti eva śaśāṅkaḥ iva śītatām
25. eṣaḥ vastūnām svabhāvaḥ hi svataḥ-siddhiḥ na
anyataḥ śaśāṅkaḥ śītatām iva eva niyatiṃ na jahāti
25. This is the intrinsic nature (svabhāva) of things: their self-existence (svataḥsiddhi), not derived from anything else. It (this intrinsic nature) never deviates from natural law (niyati), just as the moon (śaśāṅka) does not abandon its coolness.
