सुकृतैर्दुष्कृतै: कार्यैर्जायते प्राणिनां घट: । घटादुत्पद्यते कर्म घटियन्त्रं यथा भ्रमेत् ॥१-६॥

sanskrit

This human body originates from good and bad deeds only. Just as the Ghatiyantra (in olden times, the machine used to extract water from the ground with the help of oxen, which was called Rahat) keeps rotating from top to bottom. In the same way, our body keeps performing actions and due to those actions the body keeps coming into existence. It is a kind of life cycle which keeps rotating like a wheel.
