Verse 6.48.1

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
यत्रानुदितरूपात्म सर्वमस्तीदमाततम् ।
मयूर इव बीजेऽन्तस्तदहंतादिगादि च ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
yatrānuditarūpātma sarvamastīdamātatam |
mayūra iva bīje'ntastadahaṃtādigādi ca || 1 ||

Vasishtha continued:—That which contains this wide extended universe within itself, and without manifesting its form unto us, is very like the egg of the peahen and contains all space and individual bodies in its yolk.
