Verse 3.100.23

प्रतियोगिव्यवच्छेदसंख्यारूपादयश्च ये ।
मनःशब्दैः प्रकल्प्यन्ते ब्रह्मजान्ब्रह्म विद्धि तान् ॥ २३ ॥

pratiyogivyavacchedasaṃkhyārūpādayaśca ye |
manaḥśabdaiḥ prakalpyante brahmajānbrahma viddhi tān || 23 ||

The numbers and forms which convey determinate ideas, as distinguished from others of the same kind (as the figures in arithmetic and geometry), are all expressed in words coined by the mind from the mint of the mind of Brahma, the original source of ideas.
