The Vision of Śiva6.73

6.73
अकार्यत्वाद्विनाशस्य प्रतिबन्धो नचापि ते । स्थिरस्य प्रतिबन्ध्यत्वात् क्षणिकस्य न युज्यते ॥७३॥
akāryatvādvināśasya pratibandho nacāpi te | sthirasya pratibandhyatvāt kṣaṇikasya na yujyate
— because (for you) destruction is not an effect ; — of destruction ; — a (causal) restraining ; — is also not (possible) ; — for you ; — of a stable thing ; — because (only) a stable thing can be restrained ; — of the momentary ; — is not possible

And since for you destruction is not (produced as) an effect, no (causal) restraining (of it) is possible for you either; for only a stable thing can be restrained, (and) of the momentary (no restraint) is possible (so causality collapses on your view).
