Verse 3.55.38

संसुप्तकरणस्त्वेवं बीजतां यात्यसौ नरे तद्बीजं योनिगलितं गर्भो भवति मातरि ॥ ३८ ॥

saṃsuptakaraṇastvevaṃ bījatāṃ yātyasau nare tadbījaṃ yonigalitaṃ garbho bhavati mātari || 38 ||

The soul contains in itself the germs of all its senses, which lie dormant in it for want of its bodily organs. It is contained in the semen virilis of man, which passing into the uterus, produces the foetus in the womb of the female.
