Verse 3.116.13

तत्रेदंप्रथमया मनःकल्पनया देहीति सा ब्रह्मरूपिणी संकल्पमयी भूत्वा यदेव संकल्पयति तदेव पश्यति तेनेदं भुवनाडम्बरं कल्प्यते ॥ १३ ॥

tatredaṃprathamayā manaḥkalpanayā dehīti sā brahmarūpiṇī saṃkalpamayī bhūtvā yadeva saṃkalpayati tadeva paśyati tenedaṃ bhuvanāḍambaraṃ kalpyate || 13 ||

Of these the first is that power (Brahma), who assumed to himself the shape of the Divine Will (Sankalpa), and saw in his presence whatever he wished to produce, and which brought the mundane system into existence.
