Sanskrit Text

ये तु च्युताः सिद्धलोकात्क्रमेण; तेषां गतिं यान्ति तथानुपूर्व्या जीवाः परे तद्बलवेषरूपा; विधिं स्वकं यान्ति विपर्ययेण

English Translation

Those again whose acts, at the time of universal dissolution, have been exhausted by enjoyment or endurance of their fruits, descending from heaven, are born among men, in the subsequent Kalpa, for without Knowledge one cannot dissipate his acts in even a hundred Kalpas. All superior Being again, gifted with similar powers and similar forms, revert to their respective destinies at a new creation after a universal dissolution, ascending and descending precisely in the same way as during the creation that is dissolved.
