Verse 3.14.14

ब्रह्मवाद्यो विराडात्मा विराडात्मेव सर्गता ।
जीवाकाशः स एवेत्थं स्थितः पृथ्व्याद्यसद्यतः ॥ १४ ॥

brahmavādyo virāḍātmā virāḍātmeva sargatā |
jīvākāśaḥ sa evetthaṃ sthitaḥ pṛthvyādyasadyataḥ || 14 ||

Brahma himself is the prime soul of Viraj and selfsame with him, and Viraj is the soul of creation and identical with it. He is the vacuous vitality of all; and it is from him that the unreal earth and other things have their rise.
