This (Prājña) is the Lord of all; this is the omniscient; this is the inner controller; this is the source of all; for indeed the origination and dissolution of beings are from this.

Verse Context

• Īśvara/Hiraṇyagarbha-kāraṇa aspect; causal source (yoni) and inner controller (antaryāmin); cosmological attribution to the causal state
• Mahavakya: Indirect: uses Īśvara-language to describe the causal principle; later Mandūkya distinguishes Turīya beyond even this ‘lordly’ causal description, guiding toward nondual identity (e.g., ‘Ayam Ātmā Brahma’).
• Atharva
• Atharvaveda (Śaunaka tradition; commonly transmitted without a firmly fixed śākhā attribution) Shakha
• Chandas: Prose
