your destiny

You are what your deep, driving desire is
As your desire is, so is your will 
As your will is, so is your deed

As your deed is, so is your destiny

Kaama maya evayam purusha iti
Sa Yatha kaamo bhavati tat kratur bhavati
Yat kratur bhavati tat karma kurute
Yat karma kurte tad abhisam padyate

-B R I H A D A R A N Y A K A  UPANISHAD (4, 4.5)


काममया एवायं पुरुष इति
सा यथाकामो भवति तत्क्रतुर भवति
यात्क्रतुर भवति तत कर्म कुरुते
यत कर्म कुरुते तद अभिसम पद्यते
