ब्रह्मपुर्यष्टकस्यादावर्थसंविद्यथोदिता ।
पुर्यष्टकस्य सर्वस्य तथैवोदेति सर्वदा ॥ २ ॥

brahmapuryaṣṭakasyādāvarthasaṃvidyathoditā |
puryaṣṭakasya sarvasya tathaivodeti sarvadā || 2 ||

As brahma said:—the collective agents of creation was endued only with his consciousness—Samvid for the performance of all his functions;so are all individual personalities endowed with their self-consciousness only, for the discharge of all their necessary duties.
