Verse 6.36.10

गर्भीकृतमहामेरुं परमाणुसमं विदुः ।
आच्छादितमहामेरुं परमाणुसमं विदुः ॥ १० ॥

garbhīkṛtamahāmeruṃ paramāṇusamaṃ viduḥ |
ācchāditamahāmeruṃ paramāṇusamaṃ viduḥ || 10 ||

It contains in its bowels the great mountains, likening the particles of dust (or rather as the roes of a fish); it covers also the highest mountains, as the lofty sky hides the dusts on earth. So the sruti—Greater than the greatest and smaller than the smallest. [Sanskrit: aniraniyan mahatimahiyat]
