Verse 3.64.6

तस्यैवोद्यदिवाशान्ति यत्सत्त्वं संविदात्मकम् ।
स्वभावात्स्पन्दनं तत्तु जीवशब्देन कथ्यते ॥ ६ ॥

tasyaivodyadivāśānti yatsattvaṃ saṃvidātmakam |
svabhāvātspandanaṃ tattu jīvaśabdena kathyate || 6 ||

Thence sprang a power (an hypostasis) like the germ of a seed, and possessed of consciousness and energy, that is called the living and conscious soul, and which must last until its final liberation.
