Verse 3.21.10

प्रतिभासत एवेदं केषांचित्सरणं विना ।
चिदणूनां प्रजेशत्वं काकतालीयवद्यतः ॥ १० ॥

pratibhāsata evedaṃ keṣāṃcitsaraṇaṃ vinā |
cidaṇūnāṃ prajeśatvaṃ kākatālīyavadyataḥ || 10 ||

According to some others, the world manifested itself not from the memory, but by the power and will of God; while others maintain it to be the production of a fortuitous combination, of intelligence and atomic principles on a sudden.
