जनलोके विवर्त्तन्ते संवर्त्तः प्लवते जगत् / व्युष्टायां तु रजन्यां वै ब्रह्मणो ऽव्यक्तयोनितः

Transliteration

janaloke vivarttante saṃvarttaḥ plavate jagat / vyuṣṭāyāṃ tu rajanyāṃ vai brahmaṇo 'vyaktayonitaḥ

Translation

Họ ở trong Janaloka; khi Saṃvarta xảy đến, thế gian như trôi nổi trong nước đại hoại. Khi đêm đã qua, từ Brahmā có nguồn gốc nơi Avyakta (sự sáng tạo lại khởi lên).
