योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-7, chapter-177, verse-27

धर्माद्यमुत्रामूर्तत्वान्मूर्ते देहे न कारणम् ।
देहस्य कारणं किं स्यात्तत्र सर्गादिभोगिनः ॥ २७ ॥

dharmādyamutrāmūrtatvānmūrte dehe na kāraṇam ,
dehasya kāraṇaṃ kiṃ syāttatra sargādibhoginaḥ 27

27. dharmādi amutra amūrtatvāt mūrte dehe na kāraṇam
dehasya kāraṇam kim syāt tatra sargādibhoginaḥ

27. amutra dharmādi amūrtatvāt,
mūrte dehe na kāraṇam.
tatra sargādibhoginaḥ dehasya kim kāraṇam syāt?

27. Because dharma (merit or demerit) and the like are formless in the afterlife, they cannot be the direct cause of a material body. What then could be the cause of the body for the individual (ātman) who experiences creation and its results in that realm?
