Verse 6.46.31

यादृशी बीजसत्ता सा भवन्ती यात्यथोत्तरम् ।
चिद्धने चिद्धनत्वं यत्स एव त्रिजगत्क्रमः ॥ ३१ ॥

yādṛśī bījasattā sā bhavantī yātyathottaram |
ciddhane ciddhanatvaṃ yatsa eva trijagatkramaḥ || 31 ||

As the substance of seed goes on gradually transforming itself into the various states of its development, so the density of the divine intellect (or spirit) condenses itself the more and more in its production of solid and compact world, and this is the course of the formation of the cosmos by slow degrees.
