Verse 3.3.34

मन एव विरिञ्चित्वं तद्धि संकल्पनात्मकम् ।
स्ववपुः स्फारतां नीत्वा मनसेदं वितन्यते ॥ ३४ ॥

mana eva viriñcitvaṃ taddhi saṃkalpanātmakam |
svavapuḥ sphāratāṃ nītvā manasedaṃ vitanyate || 34 ||

The mind is the creative Brahma called Verinchitvas (Lat. Virinchoativus), by the exercise of its inherent sankalpa or the volition of incipience or creation—sisriksha;and displays itself in the form of the visible universe by development of its own essence.
