“This is Brahman, this Indra, this Prajāpati; these are all the gods, and these five great elements — earth, wind, sky, waters, lights — and these small mixed seeds, and the born of egg, womb, sweat, and sprout, horses, cattle, men, elephants, all breathing, moving, flying, and stationary things: all is led by Consciousness, founded on Consciousness; the world is led by Consciousness; Consciousness is the foundation; Consciousness is Brahman.”
