Karma’s Non-Extinction, Jīva’s Entry into the Embryo, and Instruction on Conduct-Dharma
तद् बीजं सर्वभूतानां तेन जीवन्ति जन्तव: । स जीव: सर्वगात्राणि गर्भस्याविश्य भागश:
tad bījaṁ sarvabhūtānāṁ tena jīvanti jantavaḥ | sa jīvaḥ sarvagātrāṇi garbhasyāviśya bhāgaśaḥ ||
彼为一切众生之种；由彼，群生得以存活。jīva 逐肢入于胎中，遍满诸分，立刻令各处生起觉知，成为使身得以活动并维系不绝的内在因。

Educational Q&A
Life and consciousness in embodied beings are attributed to the jīva as the originating, animating principle: it is called the 'seed' of beings because it is the inner cause by which creatures live and the body becomes sentient.
A brāhmaṇa speaker explains how the jīva enters an embryo and pervades its limbs part by part, thereby producing sentience and sustaining life—framing embodiment as dependent on an inner living principle rather than mere physical formation.
