तद्व्योमप्रकृतिः प्रोक्ता तदव्यक्तं जडाजडम् ।
संस्मृतेरस्मृतेश्चैव क्रम एष भवोदये ॥ ३९ ॥

tadvyomaprakṛtiḥ proktā tadavyaktaṃ jaḍājaḍam |
saṃsmṛterasmṛteścaiva krama eṣa bhavodaye || 39 ||

The universal vacuum is called nature (prakriti). It is the reflection of the invisible divine mind (chit prativimbam); and is the parent of all that is dull or moving (Jada-Jada), which are so produced by cause of their reminiscence or its absence (sansmriti and asmriti);the former causing the regeneration of living beings, and the latter its cessation as in inert matter.
