वयं च भगवन् सर्वे जगच्च सचराचरम् | तवैव प्रसवा: सर्वे तस्मादग्निर्विभावसु:
vayaṃ ca bhagavan sarve jagac ca sacarācaram | tavaiva prasavāḥ sarve tasmād agnir vibhāvasuḥ ||
হে ভগবান! আমরা সকলেই, আর চলমান-অচলসহ সমগ্র জগৎ—সবই আপনারই প্রসূত। অতএব দীপ্তিমান অগ্নি (বিভাবসু)ও আপনারই সন্তান।

Educational Q&A
All beings and the entire cosmos—animate and inanimate—are presented as emanating from the Supreme Lord; even Agni (Fire), a major Vedic deity, is affirmed as deriving from that one source, emphasizing divine sovereignty and the unity of creation.
Vasiṣṭha addresses a revered Lord and, in a tone of theological affirmation, declares that the whole world is the Lord’s progeny; he then specifically cites Agni (Vibhāvasu) as an example, reinforcing the Lord’s status as the ultimate origin.
