Verse 3.9.34

यथा शून्यत्वमाकाशे ताप एव मरौ जलम् ।
तेज एव सदा लोके ब्रह्मैव त्रिजगत्तथा ॥ ३४ ॥

yathā śūnyatvamākāśe tāpa eva marau jalam |
teja eva sadā loke brahmaiva trijagattathā || 34 ||

As vacuity abides in air, and water appears in the burning deserts, and as there is light spread over all creation; so is the spirit of Brahma manifest in the three worlds in the forms of the very worlds.
