It is said that the Current of Siddhas is in the netherworld and (is made of) supernatural beings. It is said that the Current of Men is in the sphere of mortals and (is made of) human beings. The Divine Current is in heaven and (is made of) the hosts of the gods. That (Current) which is only one appears to be many”.
