Lokakalpanā / The Ordering of the Worlds
Cosmogony and Earth’s Retrieval
एकार्णवे तदा तस्मिन्नष्टे स्थावरजङ्गमे / विभुर्भवति स ब्रह्मा सहस्राक्षः सहस्रपात्
ekārṇave tadā tasminnaṣṭe sthāvarajaṅgame / vibhurbhavati sa brahmā sahasrākṣaḥ sahasrapāt
When, in that single cosmic ocean, all the immovable and the moving had perished, the all-pervading Brahmā came forth, with a thousand eyes and a thousand feet.
